That's quite handy! But not what I'm looking for. I'm trying to figure out what edits I made to my config files.
My most recent case was trying to figure out what I'd done to my BIND files (/etc/named.*, /etc/logrotate.d/named, /var/named/*). I ended up just tarring them up and erasing and re-installing the bind package, then untarring my old config into a tmp directory and diffing the files individually, reapplying appropriate changes.
Some packages make this a bit easier, such as systemd unit files (where my customization never touches a package file) and fail2ban (where customizations go in a .local file that overrides settings in a .conf file. I much prefer this pattern, but it doesn't work with older packages like BIND. Some packages have a hybrid structure with a directory for customizations, like apache.
