[Wiltshire] Finding modified configuration files associated with Debian/Ubuntu Packages

[Simon Iremonger]

dpkg (used in debian and ubuntu and various derivatives)
   keeps track of configuration files associated with a
   package and keeps hold of a checksum of installed
   configuration files.

This way, when you upgrade the package and there is now
   an updated version of the default configuration file, dpkg
   knows if it can just install it, or if you need to merge
   changes manually from your modified config.



I would like, to systematically, find out what installed
   packages have modified configurations, without actually
   updating/installing anything -- i.e. "discover"
   customized files on a system, basically.

Any ideas anyone?


Thanks,
