Either this is a joke, or you still have to learn the difference between
a source package and a binary package.

If it's not a joke, please read the manuals first. The debian-policy package
would be a good start.

Hint: Neither the source package or the files in the binary package
are available when the preinst is executed by dpkg.

BTW: Please don't top post.

Thanks.
