Package: ldap-account-manager
Version: 1.0.3-1
Severity: serious

The web frontend allows to nicely change the settings of the default
profiles and lam.conf. These settings are stored under
/var/lib/ldap-account-manager/config/(profiles). This means that changes
to this config files are not preserved on package upgrades. I'd suggest
to move lam.conf and profiles to /etc/ldap-account-manager so that they
are treated as conffiles and create a symlink
/var/lib/l-a-m/config/profiles -> /etc/l-a-m/profiles
and 
/var/lib/l-a-m/config/lam.conf -> /etc/l-a-m/lam.conf
as already done with config.cfg.
phpldapadmin does it similar btw, it also puts the templates into /etc/.
I'm filling this bug serious, because it violates debian policy which
states that configuration files should reside in /etc and changes by the
user have to be preserved on package upgrades.

Cheers,
Michael
