That's true. It's created in the preinst and removed in the postrm. Anything
wrong with that. I didn't really find anything about this in the policy doc
or the developers reference. But if there's some de-facto approach for this
let me know. I'm more than happy to comply.

I don't understand. Installing the package multiple times works for me, or
is that not what you meant? What's the error you're getting?

That's true. That is (also per to-be-updated Debian XML policy) not (yet)
a supported feature. I uploaded the package to unstable, so please file a
wishlist when it's official available.
Thanks,
