[pkg-squid-devel] squid-3.5.4 package

As mentioned earlier I've got the packaging updating squid3 to 3.5.4
applied and pushed.

The transition to package name "squid" has got a bit confusing. Using
dpkg-maintscript-helper it copes nicely with with all cases of any
pre-existing squid (2.7) package, or both pre-existing squid and squid3
packages.

Except for one case permutation:
 With only a pre-existing squid3 package which has also been edited by
the admin it seems to discard the old /etc/squid3/squid.conf file and
use the new packaged one. So the one case we most want to preserve the
config it is being discarded.

Any ideas how to fix?
 I've applied and pushed the progress so far for y'all to see the context.

To be done:
* fix the above squid3 issue
* migrate any other user custom config files that exist in /etc/squid3/
* edit squid.conf for helper renaming since Lenny.
