They are dpkg conffiles, and they are config files, but they *should* be in /etc/ rather than /var. Yes, the maintainer is aware of this. I guess moving the files to /etc is significant hardship for the maintainer, so they've decided to leave it. > Should we move this to debian-policy? I don't think it's necessary. The point is that Policy states that config files go in /etc. Take your cues from best current practice, not worst current practice. ;) -- .....A. P.
