I was thinking the other day that when dpkg discovers a conffile has
been changed, it should display at least some of the differences
before asking the sysadmin what to do. Something like:
diff /etc/foo.conf /etc/foo.conf.dpkg-dist | head -18
(or however much will fit on the screen). Would this be difficult to
add?
