/etc/zsh/zlogout causes the clearing of the terminal screen. It was introduced in commit c31db6c back in 2006, though several of us Grml developers actually don't like this behavior.
Usage of backup_conffile was introduced for moving diverted configuration files from package grml-etc to grml-etc-core. We seem to have migrated this in 2006, so there really shouldn't any users out there anymore. :) Also the file /etc/skel/.zshrc is no longer shipped with Debian's zsh package since v4.3.0-dev-2-1, which dates back to 2011-02-11 (see git rev 78ab02f in https://salsa.debian.org/debian/zsh.git). Even oldoldstable has v5.7.1, so finally drop this workaround. So take this as chance to clean up debian/preinst at least a bit.

While working on this, had to touch dpkg-divert, again, and had to dig deeper, quoting from the resulting commit:
