As long as /etc/conffiles/managed, /etc/conffiles/unmanaged, and /etc/conffiles/default are never themselves unmanaged, this would work. And the factory default for /etc/conffiles/default should be managed; and the other two files should be empty. If we standardize on a easy to interpret format for these files, I'll add the logic to ucf to handle these directives. (how about a configuration file path per line for /etc/conffiles/managed and /etc/conffiles/unmanaged, and /etc/conffiles/default contain a single word, which is "managed" by default; anything other than "unmanaged" is interpreted as "managed?). manoj -- ...computer hardware progress is so fast.
