[Pkg-puppet-devel] Bug#826730: puppet: conffiles not removed

[Paul Wise]

Package: puppet
Version: 4.5.0-4
Severity: normal
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: obsolete-conffile adequate

The recent upgrade did not deal with obsolete conffiles properly.
Please use the dpkg-maintscript-helper support provided by
dh_installdeb to remove these obsolete conffiles on upgrade.
I upgraded from puppet 3.8.5-2 to 4.5.0-4 and purged version 3.8.5-2 of
puppet-common at the same time.
