Re: directory in .deb

No problem.  We are including here. :)

| directory (right?). So I set the right in the postinst script.

It's usually better to set it in the package building script.  Less
messy, IMHO.

| binary leads to a complain about an executable in unusual place (or
| so). Can I prevent this? Are there naming-conventions for script in
| /etc/ppp/ip-down.d?

I don't know.
