+Tag: missing-conffile
+Severity: error
+Check: conffiles
+Renamed-From: conffile-is-not-in-package
+Explanation: The conffiles control file lists this path, but the path does
+ not appear to exist in the package. Lintian may also emit this tag
+ when the file exists, but the canonical name is used in the
+ "conffiles" control file (e.g. if a parent segment are symlinks).
+ .
+ Note that dpkg and Lintian strips all whitespace from the right hand
+ side of each line. Thus it is not possible for a file ending with
+ trailing whitespace to be marked as a conffile.
