Public bug reported:

System: Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS

Using Aptitude I updated Dovecot (specifically dovecot-core:amd64) from
1:2.2.33.2-1ubuntu4.2 -> 1:2.2.33.2-1ubuntu4.3 and ended up with a non-
working installation. The reason for this is that the following config
files were completely overwritten (the latter two being the most
critical in my case):

/etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-logging.conf
/etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-mail.conf
/etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-ssl.conf

I was able to manually restore my configs from backups but was wondering
if this really should have happened, at least without requesting
approval first and opportunity to deny/edit/etc?
