I'm going to fix this only. > Other, obsolete conffiles are renamed. All this happens > unconditionally, that is, discarding all possible changes of the user to > these files. The conffiles that are renamed to .obsolete is ok. Ideally we should remove them if they have no user-changes but I won't try to fix this at this point of the freeze. The conffile that is really renamed is not really a problem either since the rename happens in the postinst and not in the preinst and thus it doesn't trigger a dpkg prompting. It will do so only the next time that this conffile is updated and that't wanted. > 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. :-) Strange, it should only be removed on upgrade in theory. Okay, we need to check that $2 is not empty too.
