Package: backup-manager
Version: 0.5.7-1sarge1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


Because /etc/backup-manager.conf is not marked as a conffile, 
the last security
update overwrote my configuration of /etc/backup-manager.conf. 
I configured an upload via ftp and also MB_POST_BACKUP_COMMAND.
The complete configuration is lost, so that no backup to the ftp
site was made.

The hint in README.Debian to not edit the .conf file and to use
debconf instead is useless, since not all options are handled by
debconf.
