Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 10.7.3

Dear Maintainer,

phabricator's postinst script uses bin/config to unconditionally set 
configuration parameters to the package/debconf defaults. This happens 
on both reinstall and upgrade and overwrites any changes performed by 
the administrator.

According to Debian policy manual, local configuration changes performed 
by the administrator (using bin/config in this case) must be preserved.  
The easiest way to do so is to check if the parameters are already set 
before setting them.

Regards,
Apollon
