Hey.

Clarifying on this:

With "clean up" I didn't mean "remove"... ;-)

AFAICS, the two files are now contained in util-linux-extra (again as
conffiles).

On a Debian sid system of mine (that I typically upgrade every day - so
it got every version in between installed),... the files are in fact
*only* registered as conffiles for util-linux-extra, and don't show up
as obsoletes.

However, on one system that I upgraded few days ago from bullseye to
bookworm I get:
# dpkg -S /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh /etc/default/hwclock
util-linux-extra: /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh
util-linux-extra: /etc/default/hwclock

=> ok, still good

but:
# dpkg-query --showformat='${Package}\n${Conffiles}\n' --show
...
util-linux
 /etc/pam.d/runuser b8b44b045259525e0fae9e38fdb2aeeb
 /etc/pam.d/runuser-l 2106ea05877e8913f34b2c77fa02be45
 /etc/pam.d/su 60fbbe65c90d741bc0d380543cefe8af
 /etc/pam.d/su-l 756fef5687fecc0d986e5951427b0c4f
 /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh c06bc68c12cbdd9c7f60ba25ee587efe obsolete
 /etc/default/hwclock 02f94aaf57aff4e2e6751ec7b877a997 obsolete
util-linux-extra
 /etc/default/hwclock 02f94aaf57aff4e2e6751ec7b877a997
 /etc/init.d/hwclock.sh c06bc68c12cbdd9c7f60ba25ee587efe
util-linux-locales
...

So for some reason it's still registered to both as conffile.

I always though, dpkg -S would show that, too.


Cheers,
Chris.
