So policy-rc.d needs to be in /usr/local, or we have a FHS violation.
Additionally, the requirement of going through the alternatives system
for policy-rc.d selection is somewhat mis-placed, because it suggests
to me that policy-rc.d is meant to come in via package as well.

Can somebody please enlighten me?
