In any case you should notice the administrator about this. Using a debconf note or a debconf question asking to keep the current modification to the new conffile should do the job. BTW for information, if your package update a same conffile, the system could be noticed to not overwrite it. Cf. Section 7.5 http://www.debian.org/doc/FAQ/ch-pkg_basics.en.html Greetings, -- ,''`.
