[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#673608: Please clean up obsolete conffiles using dpkg-maintscript-helper rm_conffile

Package: alsa-base
Version: 1.0.25+1
Severity: normal

Version 1.0.25+1 of alsa-base removed various obsolete conffiles, such
as the files under /etc/apm, but did not explicitly remove those
conffiles using dpkg-maintscript-helper rm_conffile.  Since dpkg does
not remove conffiles when they disappear from a package, this results in
those files remaining on the system.  Please consider adding an
appropriate call to dpkg-maintscript-helper's rm_conffile helper in the
alsa-base maintainer scripts.

Thanks,
Josh Triplett
