Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: migrationtools
The package's README file indicates that one should edit
"migrate_common.ph" and change at least two lines:
$DEFAULT_MAIL_DOMAIN
$DEFAULT_BASE
However, "migrate_common.ph" is installed at
/usr/share/perl5/migrate_common.ph and is not (AFAICT) a conffile. As
such, any changes made to file will be lost on subsequent installations
and upgrades.
As these two lines are intended to be edited/configured on a per-
installation basis, perhaps they should be moved out to a configuration
file that resides somewhere under /etc.
