After a directory change (/srv/www/htdocs -> /usr/share) or addition of the /var/cache/phpMyAdmin directory we should at least try to migrate a configuration that was modified by a user (rather than just replacing it by the package default). Of course this doesn't have a 100% success rate, but it is better than nothing.
Of course no migration is needed if the user never modified the configuration, as in that case the configuration file will just be replaced.
Again apologies for totally missing the fact that the previous migration indeed checked if the /srv/www/htdocs directory existed. If that didn't exist, it was indeed not run and changing to %config from %config(noreplace) was inappropriate.

Hope it will run without errors.
