Public bug reported: While investigating libvirt/dnsmasq interactions for bug #1694156, I noticed that I had redundant files under /etc/dnsmasq.d from libvirt- daemon-system and libvirt-bin. Looking at the status of the libvirt-bin package, I see the following:
Package: libvirt-bin Status: install ok installed Priority: extra Section: oldlibs [...] Conffiles: /etc/default/virtlockd de3684752181bda812f7bf4ef983654c obsolete /etc/default/libvirt-bin 619ef67a86531f89f4cf45efde87cb82 obsolete /etc/init/libvirt-bin.conf e946cc33fb1161ab19eddccfe526cee5 obsolete /etc/dnsmasq.d-available/libvirt-bin bbf7e62e130a4cb7b6db7c4260883a68 obsolete /etc/libvirt/libvirt-admin.conf 7c1bbeb439d79ec32ff7d18cb1364e2f obsolete /etc/cron.daily/libvirt-bin 21a4c092781e8119b8d5aa9d9d3d9f8b obsolete /etc/apparmor.d/libvirt/TEMPLATE 0d5580a22d95fc622cd5b8efe54b8757 obsolete /etc/dnsmasq.d/libvirt-bin bbf7e62e130a4cb7b6db7c4260883a68 obsolete I see that this is a transitional package, but if the libvirt-bin package is going to be built at all from the source, it should be taking care to remove the obsolete conffiles on upgrade. This should be done now, even though the actual obsolescence happened some time ago. ** Affects: libvirt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1694159 Title: libvirt-bin dropped conffiles but never cleaned them up on disk To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/1694159/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
