Meanwhile I noticed that dbcheck, when prompting for a "(yes/no)"
answer, will interpret the answer "y" as "no".

It is entirely possible (and in fact quite probable) that I had
indeed just answered "y" to the "Print them?" question above,
which dbcheck would have taken as "no, don't print" and directly
proceeded to deleting them.

Does that make sense?

Thanks,
Tilman
