I think this is really unhelpful. If Ubuntu has patches to migrate
configuration automatically, we should ship them. It's really rude to force
users to reconfigure everything when they upgrade to a new Fedora just
because upstream couldn't be bothered to migrate settings properly (and I
hate upstreams doing that).
