** Description changed:

  TEST CASE:
-  The bug can only be triggered when there is a package with multiple 
configuration files and the update
-  changes one configuration files (but not the first) and the user has 
modified the local configuration
-  file. This is the case for asterisk-config in debian/squeeze and this is how 
the bug got discovered.
-  I added a test in the code to artificially trigger the error. For the real 
verification we can either
-  reply on Debian or create a squeeze chroot with asterisk-config installed 
then modifying /etc/asterisk 
-  /sip.conf and running unattended-upgrades.

is sufficient. Running the

comparing /var/log/apt/history.log (or comparing the result of 
unattedned-upgrades --dry-run) should be sufficient.
  
  Binary package hint: unattended-upgrades
  
  There is a bug in the conffile detection that causes the code to miss
  modified conffiles if there are multiple conffiles.
