koha-conf.xml files for instances created with the Debian packages are never
updated/upgraded when the packages are updated. This results in lots of missing
stuff in the config files over time. This seems to be the root of the problems
I have reported in bug 12577. As an example an old instance has 21 lines i the
<config> section, while a fresh instance has 30. 

Perhaps there could be a script that can
- read an existing koha-conf.xml (and back it up)
- generate a new file with the old values + placeholders or default values (or
interactive questions?) for any missing values
