[Pkg-matrix-maintainers] Bug#921439: matrix-synapse: Delete self-signed certificates during upgrade to version 0.99

[Joseph Nuthalapati]

Dear maintainer,

After going through the detailed documentation[1] on how the
matrix-synapse ACME client works, I found that obtaining certificates
using it is neither as automatic or easy as I expected.

Since deleting the self-signed certificates isn't the only step
involved, we should let the administrator handle the upgrade to 0.99 or
1.0. Reusing the server's Let's Encrypt certificate is provided as an
alternate option (which is what I'm planning to do in my case).

Automatically deleting the certificates during the Debian package
installation seems like a bad idea. I will close this issue.
