One note while I am reading the source code of dbconfig-common, I believe that if you would correctly register /etc/cacti/debian.php with dpkg-statoverride, your files should be save against dbconfig-common changing the ownership and permissions. Not that I think it should be necessary for configuration files, but at least dbconfig-common uses that information. Paul
