Hi, > 2) Bug #880529: When updating from jessie to stretch, the package > "bacula-director-common" will be removed, but the postrm will stay > around. Upon purging this package, postrm unconditionally removes the > main bacula configuration file /etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf, leaving > bacula unusable.

I just noticed that I left out a detail that might help understand the problem: the configuration file used to be owned by the package "bacula-director-common", but ownership moved to the new package "bacula-director". Regards, Carsten
