Subject:piuparts: adequate reports obsolete conffile for piuparts
Package: piuparts
Version: 0.75
Severity: normal
User: debian-qa@lists.debian.org
Usertags: obsolete-conffile adequate

Dear Maintainer,
Adequate reports broken obsolete-conffile -

[$] adequate piuparts

piuparts: obsolete-conffile /etc/piuparts/scripts/post_setup_experimental


Maybe you could use what pabs (Paul Wise) did in #815563, in that the
proper thing to do would be -

Use the dpkg-maintscript-helper support provided by dh_installdeb to remove such similar obsolete conffiles on upgrade

Also https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-files.html#s-config-files

You can also see manpage of dh_installdeb via debhelper package which is the same thing.

I ran the same command as he did -

[$] pkg=piuparts ; adequate $pkg ; dpkg-query -W -f='${Conffiles}\n' $pkg | grep obsolete

piuparts: obsolete-conffile /etc/piuparts/scripts/post_setup_experimental
/etc/piuparts/scripts/pre_remove_40_find_obsolete_conffiles
dce83ee504ba336d8a2930fb6053635c
/etc/piuparts/scripts/post_setup_experimental
f7a1f3d45dc43106d1cd9b124b7c1ca8 obsolete

Please fix the above.
