Oh, that's a misunderstanding how dpkg handles conffiles (which any file in /etc is by default). Modifications to conffiles are preserved by dpkg, removing a file is such a modification which is preserved. To get the conffile back, you have two options 1/ apt purge / dpkg --purge the package and install it anew 2/ use "dpkg --force-confmiss" when installing the package to restore missing conffiles. Read "dpkg --force-help" for more details. -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
