The recent upgrade did not deal with obsolete conffiles properly.
Please use the dpkg-maintscript-helper support provided by dh_installdeb
to remove these obsolete conffiles on upgrade.

Hey.

The same happened again during the upgrade to 3.0.0~RC1-4 with the
following files that were previously conffiles (and which are either no
longer shipped at all, or not longer as conffiles):

# dpkg-query --showformat='${Package}\n${Conffiles}\n' --show  |  awk '/^[^ ]/{pkg=$1}/ obsolete$/{print pkg,$0}' | cut -d ' ' -f 1-3 | column -t
gimp-data              /etc/gimp/2.0/unitrc
gimp-data              /etc/gimp/2.0/toolrc
gimp-data              /etc/gimp/2.0/templaterc
gimp-data              /etc/gimp/2.0/sessionrc
gimp-data              /etc/gimp/2.0/menurc
gimp-data              /etc/gimp/2.0/gtkrc
gimp-data              /etc/gimp/2.0/gimprc
gimp-data              /etc/gimp/2.0/controllerrc
