severity 330256 normal retitle 330256 delete obsolescent not-locally-changed conffiles thanks
I'm inclined to agree with Anton Zinoviev's view. However, I don't think this change should be made without more careful consideration as it's a substantial and possibly destructive change to the existing behaviour. Note that the same rule should apply on reinstallation of a removed but not purged package. This would result in the perhaps counterintuitive behaviour that installating a package which had previously been removed would cause a file to disappear. I think we should have a discussion (on debian-devel?) about this. In the meantime this is not a very critical bug so I have adjusted the severity.
