Package: release-notes Severity: minor Hi,
It makes sense to cleanup from the last upgrade before starting a new one. The files that debconf leaves when packages are upgraded should be found and removed by the admin so that there is no possiblity of confusion after upgrade as to what changes were made to the config files. I.e. debconf (iirc) leaves old config files 'foo.dpkg-old' laying about when the admin decides to install the package maintiner's new version of a config file rather than keep what's on the system. I'm sure there's a different name for when the admin decides to keep the old file. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.8 APT prefers oldstable APT policy: (500, 'oldstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
