manually, yes, at least as far as obsolete conffiles is concerned, by looking at adequate(1)'s output (which piuparts runs): % wget https://piuparts.debian.org/stable2sid/fail/xapps-common_2.8.5-1.log -q -O - | grep ': obsolete-conffile' | sort -u xapps-common: obsolete-conffile /etc/X11/Xsession.d/80xapp-gtk3-module of course, ideally, piuparts whould be modified to drop all of the "Package purging left files on system" warnings, given that that's covered by adequate. (fwiw, one can also run adequate as part of autopkgtest -- see /usr/share/doc/adequate/README -- but that wouldn't detect obsolete conffiles, as that requires an install/upgrade sequence, which is what piuparts does among other things)
