Hi,
a pair of days ago i have uploaded a new version of libpaper and
libpaperg (version 1.0.3-10), to close a release critical bug:
in the preinst of libpaperg i have added two diversions, since
both libpaper and libpaperg contain the files

these two packages share a config file. However, this file is not part
of the package, but is created in the postinst and removed in the postrm,
