Package: fontconfig-config Version: 2.6.0-3 Severity: serious I discovered this issue when doing a automatic upgrade of KDE from Lenny to Squeeze. The package claim /etc/fonts/conf.avail/25-unhint-nonlatin.conf have been changed locally. This is obviously wrong, as the package was upgraded from a freshly generated Lenny chroot.
The complete installation and upgrade log can be found at <URL: http://people.skolelinux.org/~pere/debian-upgrade-testing/test-20100729-lenny-squeeze-kde-aptitude.txt >. This is the relevant part: Setting up fontconfig-config (2.6.0-3) ... Configuration file `/etc/fonts/conf.avail/25-unhint-nonlatin.conf' ==> File on system created by you or by a script. ==> File also in package provided by package maintainer. 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. *** 25-unhint-nonlatin.conf (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ? dpkg: error processing fontconfig-config (--configure): EOF on stdin at conffile prompt The script to reproduce this is available next to the log file. I believe a untouched Lenny installation should upgrade without conffile questions, and hope you can find a way to make sure that happen also for fontconfig-config. If I am not mistaken, it is also a requirement in the Debian policy. Setting severity to serious because of this.
