Hello debian-dpkg,

I moved a configuration file kali.conf from the speech-dispatcher
package to the speech-dispatcher-kali package (as well as others, but
let's keep that example only).

The thing is: speech-dispatcher does not depend on
speech-dispatcher-kali (and cannot: the former is in main, the latter is
in contrib). It means that we either have

- a system with speech-dispatcher only, we want kali.conf to go away.

- a system with speech-dispatcher and speech-dispatcher-kali, we want to
  keep kali.conf and reassign it to speech-dispatcher-kali.

Using mv_conffile only in speech-dispatcher-kali does not remove
kali.conf in the first case. Using mv_conffile only in speech-dispatcher
leaves kali.conf.dpkg-new. Using rm_conffile in speech-dispatcher and
mv_conffile in speech-dispatcher-kali breaks: 

Removing obsolete conffile /etc/speech-dispatcher/modules/kali.conf ...
[...]
Preserving user changes to /etc/speech-dispatcher/modules/kali.conf (renamed from /etc/speech-dispatcher/modules/kali.conf)...
mv: cannot stat '/etc/speech-dispatcher/modules/kali.conf': No such file or directory

Do you have any other idea?

Samuel
