[php-maint] Bug#656495: marked as done (php5-sqlite: unmigrated sqlite.ini left behind as obsolete conffile)

[Ondřej Surý]

Bob,

your theory is probably correct and the dpkg-maintscript-helper is probably
useless as is in that case, because +b1 is binNMU and maintainer has
no control over it, I'll set the version in d-m-t to 5.3.9~
