[Pkg-puppet-devel] Bug#525852: postrm will remove files owned by puppetmaster on purge

Package: puppet
Version: 0.24.5-3
Severity: important

Hi,

Puppet will rm -rf /var/lib/puppet on purge.  But this directory may
contain files created by puppetmaster (e.g. the CA certificates) which
should not be removed when puppet (and not puppetmaster) is purged.

Regards,
Ansgar
