So, when on installs the revision -3 everything is fine, but when upgrading from -2 or earlier the modules.conf in /etc remains untouched. I've created the -4 revision and put it here [1]. It checks the modules.conf in /etc/proftpd if the needed modules are in the file and adds them if not. Unfortunately the end user has to decide to use the maintainers version of the modules.conf even if he did not change it, which is quite confusing. Could you test the package + upgrade? The packages are built for Debian stable, if you need a build for unstable / testing, please call back! @Francesco P. Lovergine: I've simply used the code as for forcing to load the mod_ident.c (see add_mod_ident() function in the postinst script). Do you remember, why the script just manipulates the $MODULES_NEW file instead of the $MODULES file (i.e. the real modules.conf? Hilmar [1] https://people.debian.org/~hille42/1103981/
