Which is the default for stable: % cat /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg # dpkg configuration file # # This file can contain default options for dpkg. All commandline # options are allowed. Values can be specific by putting them after # the option, seperated by whitespace and/or an `=' sign. # # Do not enable debsign by default; since Debian does not use embedded # signature debsign would reject all packages. no-debsig # # Allow file overlaps between packages. force-overwrite Let's not follow that example.
