crack and crack-common both install /usr/share/Crack/conf. This does not
presently seem to cause practical problems, because dpkg does not track
file types. As both are installed as symbolic links with the same
target, things seem to work out in practice thus far. Still, this is
excercising undefined behaviour in dpkg that is subject to change and it
also very likely is unintentional. Given that crack depends on
crack-common, it very likely should not install /usr/share/Crack/conf.
Do you agree?
