To make it complete:

files in /etc/ that are not the same as they were installed by lunar will:

1) never be deleted by lrm
2) as much as possible not being overwritten or touched by an upgrade
and thus (resulting from 2)
3) as much as possible not being recorded in the new install logs
and thus (resulting from 3)
4) never be deleted by lrm

this circle makes files accumulate in /etc/ that are custom. Lunar pulls 
it's hands off of them and you need to take care of them yourself. This 
principle didn't work 100% up to about a few weeks back, but should 
perform 100% right now with 'theedge'.

as said 'lvu alien' shows a list of these files (and others!).

IOW you need to clean up yourself bit as well!
