Public bug reported:

I'm upgrading libvirt-daemon-system from 6.6.0-1ubuntu4 to
6.9.0-1ubuntu1. I got a conffile prompt on this file, and to me it's
quite mysterious.

I suppose some part of libvirt added the delta for me automatically, and
now that the file changed upstream (will add that info in a separate
comment) we're triggering the usual conffile three way diff mechanism.

This should probably be suppressed somehow - AFAICT this will happen for
everyone that's used libvirt and IMO it's pretty confusing. I'll say no
I guess...

 ==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version.
   What would you like to do about it ?  Your options are:
    Y or I  : install the package maintainer's version
    N or O  : keep your currently-installed version
      D     : show the differences between the versions
      Z     : start a shell to examine the situation
 The default action is to keep your current version.
