OK, I've got the .tar.gz file corresponding to the .deb, and done a quick
grep:
phil@megaspaz:deb$ find ccc-6.2.9.506 -type f -print | xargs grep '6.2.9'

What are the chances of a mechanical search&replace working?
I know bugger all about .deb files, so it would be a leap of faith to
imagine that I could do anything with the changed files anyway. There's the
"twat it with a hammer" technique of simply running the scripts that look
like they've got a sensible name, I guess, but that sounds too much like
mucking around under the hood to me.
