Package: etckeeper Version: 1.18.2-1 When debdelta is installed, I get the following message before most upgrades:
[master e459f07] saving uncommitted changes in /etc prior to apt run 1 file changed, 0 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) rewrite debdelta/gnupg/random_seed (100%) IMHO it's obvious that this file is generated and should not be tracked. Feel free to clone this bug report (and reassign the clone to debdelta), if you think this file should not belong to /etc/. I'm not sure which severity is most appropriate here, something between wishlist and normal should fit, so filing without explicit severity. Feel free to downgrade the severity if you feel the default value is too high. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (980, 'unstable-debug'), (600, 'testing'), (111, 'buildd-unstable'), (111, 'buildd-experimental'), (110, 'experimental'), (105, 'experimental-debug') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.4.0-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages etckeeper depends on: ii bzr 2.7.0-2 ii darcs 2.10.2-1 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.58 ii git 1:2.7.0-1 ii mercurial 3.6.2-1 pn python:any <none> Versions of packages etckeeper recommends: ii cron [cron-daemon] 3.0pl1-128 Versions of packages etckeeper suggests: ii sudo 1.8.15-1.1 -- debconf information: etckeeper/purge: true etckeeper/commit_failed:
