It would be nice if packages that provided these files at one time would

this could sensibly be done as a debconf snippet though.
Its not clear that all these

If all files in /etc/gconf/schemas are totally useless (i.e., nobody

Removing that snippet would be fair; but I don't think this transition has

continuously since woody I now see that /etc/gconf/schemas/ is full of

snippet to purge these

Hi,
We only support the upgrade from one stable version to the next one,
though it's always appreciated that we don't break the upgrade when
skipping one release when easily possible. For pre-woody stuff, I would
not hesitate and just clean up the code.
