Theoretically making uctodata cleaning them up, too, is possible, but
the tasks in uctodata are already "interesting" enough. And ucto is not
going to be removed on the jessie->stretch upgrade.

Hmm, interesting ... how many (and which) conffiles in uctodata (not the
ones from ucto) have become symlinks later? Which of these have been in
ucto previously?
Given that dpkg is a bit buggy in that case, maybe we have to go back to
manually maintained maintainer scripts, for these files.
Perferable solution:
Pre-depends: dpkg (>= $FIXED)
if that doesn't work out in time:
For the preinst:
if [ ! -h $file ]; then dpkg_maintscript_helper rm_conffile ...; fi
#DEBHELPER#
for the postinst:
#DEBHELPER#
if [ "$1" = "configure" ]; then
for crap in /etc/ucto/*.dpkg-bak ; do
if [ -h "$crap" ]; rm -fv "$crap" ; fi
done
fi
Only 3 old releases of uctodata, these upgrade paths can be tested
manually. Wait 4, including 0.4-1

copy+paste error, I meant /etc/ucto/textcat.cfg
