Package: riece
Version: 3.1.0-1
Severity: important
Hello!
When doing a clean sarge to etch upgrade, the file
/etc/emacs/site-start.d/50riece.el trigger a
spurious dpkg conffile handling
Configuration file `/etc/emacs/site-start.d/50riece.el'
==> Modified (by you or by a script) since installation.
==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version.
What would you like to do about it ? Your options are:
Y or I : install the package maintainer's version
N or O : keep your currently-installed version
D : show the differences between the versions
Z : background this process to examine the situation
The default action is to keep your current version.
This is due in a RC bug in sarge riece package : it modify
the conffiles through debconf: it add:
;; Don't touch manually the following line which is modified by debconf.
;; If you want to customize add-ons, use `dpkg-reconfigure'.
and some elisp code.
(This was also a debconf abuse).
One way to fix the breakage is delete the file
/etc/emacs/site-start.d/50riece.el in the preinst script
if it match the unmodified sarge version + the debconf adjustement
at least if the user picked the default option.
When choosing the default options, I get a file
/etc/emacs/site-start.d/50riece.el with md5sum
