Subject: bash-completion: Does not remove obsolete conffiles
Date: Fri, 09 Apr 2010 01:19:49 +0200
Package: bash-completion
Version: 1:1.1-3
Severity: normal

bash-completion used to send some configuration files, and does not send
these anymore. However, they were not deleted through the Conffile handling
mechanisms, and are therefore not removed, and thus, still used.

Please consider removing them (http://wiki.debian.org/DpkgConffileHandling)

(if you are interested in doing that, send a word and I will give you
a debdiff)
