Description Jonathan Thomas 2008-10-16 16:30:00 UTC

Version:           3.0 Beta 2 (Battleship) (using 4.1.2 (KDE 4.1.2), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.26-5-generic

Currently if a debconf question for replacing a conffile during an upgrade is presented, Adept will default to keeping the old conffile. It would be ideal if the user was prompted to either keep the old file or install the new file, since new conffiles can sometimes contain serious bugfixes.

Invalid, sorry for the confusion.
