Package: debsums
Version: 2.0.48
Severity: serious

Policy 10.7.3 says
"Configuration file handling must conform to the following behavior:
 * local changes must be preserved during a package upgrade, and"

but debsums (re)creates or deletes /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/90debsums every time
it is installed, reinstalled or upgraded without asking the user.

It should:
        - only ever overwrite the file if it is unchanged
          (or if it asked to do so)
        - check if the files exists in the config script
          and store the current state in debconf before asking,
          otherwise it will revert a user deleting the file
          without asking with the next upgrade.

Thanks in advance,
        Bernhard R. Link
