New Revision: 494

Modified:
   jed/trunk/debian/NEWS
Log:
Added a note in debian/NEWS about the old files in /etc/jed-init.d/
and how to fix it with dpkg-reconfigure, after a suggestion from
Guenter.

Notice that I respected the format of the NEWS file as mandated by the
Best Packaging Practices manual (section 6.3.4, see
/usr/share/doc/developers-reference/ch-best-pkging-practices.en.html)
This is necessary to have the NEWS item shown by apt-listchanges.  I
needed also to add a dummy header (version 0.99.18-7) for the rest of
the material in that file.

+
+    Since release 0.99.17.135-1 of the package, the JED run-time
+    configuration files are put in /etc/jed.d/ instead of
+    /etc/jed-init.d/.  Due to a bug in dpkg (#108587) the config files
+    00site.sl, 00debian.sl and 99defaults.sl as well as /etc/jed.conf are
+    not removed after an upgrade to 0.99.15-1 or higher.
+
+    A debconf question has been added to the jed-common pacakge which asks
+    the user whether their modified files should be kept in
+    /etc/jed-init.d/.  However, the script that was responsible for
+    deleting the files was defective and there may be cases where the
+    files are still in the system but shouldn't be.  If it is necessary,
+    the debconf question can be revisited by running "dpkg-reconfigure
+    jed-common".
