Package: chrony Version: 4.0-8 Severity: normal Tags: d-i X-Debbugs-Cc: s.egb...@sbcglobal.net
Dear Maintainer, *** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** = What led up to the situation? = Attempting to reinstall 'chrony' package due to my misapplied file ownership and permission settings toward /run/chrony and /etc/chrony/ = What exactly did you do (or not do) that was ineffective = I ran: apt purge chrony And found all my customized chrony drop-in configuration files in /etc/chrony/conf.d subdirectory having been deleted by the purge as well. I was half-expecting the purge only to delete what they installed and to let me know that some 'straggling' files were left behind as the dpkg usually do. = What was the outcome of this action? = Lost all my customized settings. Of course, I had backup; but is this really expected of 'purge'? = What outcome did you expect instead? = I kinda expected my customized drop-in config files under /etc/chrony/conf.d to remain intact (or at least renamed at the next occurance of 'apt install chrony' time. -- System Information: Debian Release: 11.0 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.10.46 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages chrony depends on: ii adduser 3.118 ii init-system-helpers 1.60 ii iproute2 5.10.0-4 ii libc6 2.31-13 ii libcap2 1:2.44-1 ii libedit2 3.1-20191231-2+b1 ii libgnutls30 3.7.1-5 ii libnettle8 3.7.3-1 ii libseccomp2 2.5.1-1 ii tzdata 2021a-1 ii ucf 3.0043 chrony recommends no packages.
