As Julien mentioned in a mail that you should have received on April 26th, if you want to remove the debconf calls in stretch then they need to be removed in unstable first. Per your own previous response: > Seems, we did not remove all references to debconf back in 2017 and we > still read the confmodule file. However we don't use that code any more > since 2017: Whether the package in unstable actually uses debconf to manage its configuration, it *does* still source the debconf confmodule in proftpd-basic.postinst, which is the call that you're proposing to remove in the stretch update.
