In Debian and derivatives yo can check if some installed package provides a file, and the it can be upgradeable by package.
Example (yes): $ dpkg -S /etc/sysctl.conf
Example (no): $ dpkg -S /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-auth.conf
funny way of config protecting /etc/.....
please tell gentoo to a debian maintainer, debian is only as good as there maintainers, it shown on maillist many times that bad configs of dovecot and postfix is badly added as defaults when is not enabled by default from the programmers of dovecot and postfix, but debian maintainers still think its a simple task
dont allow anything to be overrided in doveconf config files
PS:
doveconf -d >/tmp/default doveconf -n >/dmp/changed
diff -urp /tmp/default /tmp/changed | less
try :=)
you can remove lines not changed
also for postfix main.cf could be simple one single line, since postconf -d should be very good output with minimal settings to be changed
i just say it :)
