<eddyp> fjp: I have sent an email about that sourced script
<eddyp> I wasn't sure either which was the best way
<eddyp> if the sourced "script" is not +x is that ok? or do you prefer 
the /usr/lib/ppp-udeb/solution?
<eddyp> s:ppp-udeb/:ppp-udeb/ :
<fjp> finish-install.d should only contain actual scripts that should be 
run during finish-install, and nothing else.

Note that what you were putting into finish-install.d is _not_ a script...

<eddyp> fjp: as I said in the mail, the script is harmless ... that's why 
I thought it would be fine
<fjp> Why don't you set that value in debconf, if you need to retrieve it 
later?
<fjp> eddyp: Dumping cruft in a runparts directory is never OK.
<eddyp> finish-install.d has debconf available?
<fjp> Of course.
<eddyp> I wasn't aware of that
<eddyp> ok, that is nice
<fjp> Look at other scripts in finish-install.d...
