Additionally, http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-
files.html#s10.7.4 states that

"If two or more packages use the same configuration file and it is
reasonable for both to be installed at the same time, one of these
packages must be defined as owner of the configuration file, i.e., it
will be the package which handles that file as a configuration file.
Other packages that use the configuration file must depend on the owning
package if they require the configuration file to operate."

This is quite true since gufw .debs (once we, upstream make) do depend
on ufw...

I'm unclear as to why can't this rule be applied to the ufw-gufw
relationship.
