[SOLVED] *.dpkg-transfer *.dpkg-bak *.dpkg-remove *.dpkg-dist

#1 Post by nevis2us »

After upgrade to bullseye there're leftover config files in /etc. I can guess what to do with *.dpkg-remove and *.dpkg-dist files. *.dpkg-bak is probably an equivalent of *.dpkg-remove, but what to do with *.dpkg-transfer? Is there an explanation somewhere?

***

From the transcript of the upgrade session, it looks like the config file is now provided by another package:
Preparing transfer of config file /etc/libvirt/virt-login-shell.conf (from libvirt-clients to libvirt-login-shell) ...

I think it's safe to just remove the extension:
# mv /etc/libvirt/virt-login-shell.conf.dpkg-transfer /etc/libvirt/virt-login-shell.conf
