And he disagree to remove these old config files. This is the main
reason why he is waiting for joss advice.

Frankly I don't care if this bug is fixed for sarge or not. As you know
this is ours users who are penalized not me.

50 ? I've filed 6 bugs report, and again I don't have to check if
a package use dh_gconf or not. Also do you know that you can do that in
postisnt without waiting for new dh_gconf ?

For me I stop this sterile discussion. I'm losing my time for nothing.
