Package: acpi-support Version: 0.109-10 Severity: serious Justification: Policy 10.7.3
Hi, /etc/modprobe.d/thinkpad_acpi.modprobe is removed in the postinst. Other, obsolete conffiles are renamed. All this happens unconditionally, that is, discarding all possible changes of the user to these files. Please see http://wiki.debian.org/DpkgConffileHandling for good ways to handle obsolete conffiles. Note that thinkpad_acpi.modprobe is *not* obsolete, and it is also removed upon the first install of the package, so my fresh Debian install was born without it. :-) This interesting behaviour is caused by an an uncomplete fix for bug #481253 [1]. - Nikolaus [1] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=481253 -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=de_DE.utf8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages acpi-support depends on: ii acpi-support-base 0.109-10 scripts for handling base ACPI eve ii acpid 1.0.8-1 Utilities for using ACPI power man ii dmidecode 2.9-1 Dump Desktop Management Interface ii finger 0.17-12 user information lookup program ii hdparm 8.9-3 tune hard disk parameters for high ii laptop-detect 0.13.6 attempt to detect a laptop ii libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii lsb-base 3.2-20 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii powermgmt-base 1.30 Common utils and configs for power ii vbetool 1.0-3 run real-mode video BIOS code to a ii x11-xserver-utils 7.3+5 X server utilities Versions of packages acpi-support recommends: ii dbus 1.2.1-5 simple interprocess messaging syst ii hal 0.5.11-8 Hardware Abstraction Layer ii nvclock 0.8b3-1 Allows you to overclock your nVidi ii pm-utils 1.1.2.4-1 utilities and scripts for power ma ii radeontool 1.5-5 utility to control ATI Radeon back ii toshset 1.73-3 Access much of the Toshiba laptop Versions of packages acpi-support suggests: pn laptop-mode-tools <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
