If a local package needs to add a line to /etc/services, what's the best
way to do it? Should it just say
grep -q fooserv || echo "fooserv 666/tcp" >> /etc/services
?
/etc/services is a conffile of netbase, and from the comments it looks like
local services are intended to be added at the end, but having one package
change another's conffiles is apparently not something the dpkg system was
originally intended to support.
