All,

  Why does the new dovecot package move the dovecot.conf to
dovecot.conf.pacsave? The same 2.0 configuration works with 2.1, why leave the
user without any dovecot.conf at all?

[2012-02-27 15:17] warning: /etc/ssl/dovecot-openssl.cnf saved as
/etc/ssl/dovecot-openssl.cnf.pacsave
[2012-02-27 15:17] warning: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf saved as
/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf.pacsave
[2012-02-27 15:17] upgraded dovecot (2.0.18-1 -> 2.1.1-3)

  Why not a just a warning that:

warning: basic configuration options have been updated, see:
