Package: ucf Version: 3.0036 Severity: wishlist Hi,
in my opinion, it is unrealistic that a package remembers all config files it has ever owned. It is therefore unrealistic to expect a package to manually ucf --purge all its config files. There should be a --purge-all option that will tell ucf that a package was purged and that all conffiles are gone now. Keeping information for a purged package around is debateable cleaner, but ... Alternatively, there should be a ucf --list option so that a maintainer script can ask ucf about which files ucf still knows of. Greetings Marc
