[squid-users] squid.conf.documented instead of squid.conf?

Hello list.

I'm on Debian SID and wanted to update squid3 to the latest 3.1.1-2
version. What happened is that dpkg returned me following error:

Configurazione di squid3 (3.1.1-2)...
sed: errore di lettura su stdin: Is a directory
dpkg: errore nell'elaborare squid3 (--configure):
 il sottoprocesso vecchio script di post-installation ha restituito lo
stato di errore 4
Si sono verificati degli errori nell'elaborazione:
 squid3
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

The *second* line is the one that made me investigate a little bit:
"sed: error reading stdin: Is a directory"... Thus I checked /etc/squid3
and got this:

drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 14 apr 15:54 squid.conf

Entering that directory, I discovered:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 198563 12 apr 16:09 squid.conf.documented

My questions are:

A) where did my customized squid.conf disappear to?
B) is it normal that now the /etc/squid3/squid.conf is not anymore a
file, but a directory?
C) how can I extract the actual configuration from the running squid3?

Many thanks in advance.
