I don't see how there is any way to handle rename and takeofer of conffiles at the same time at all. If the rename is done in apache2.2- common, how would it know if something went wrong and it has to revert the changes? I think dpkg needs to provide an explicit interface for marking conffiles as removed. Or piuparts should just ignore missing obsolete conffiles. But I will do an upload that removes the obsolete conffiles. Then doing tests with the renamed/taken over conffiles may become easier. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-apache-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
