I need to research how other packages are dealing with this. Especially when packages are upgraded. One way would be to heavily modify the upstream configuration file while maintaining compatibility so that upgrades and reconfiguration works as specified in debian-policy. Is it a common practice to modify a configuration file by adding keywords and placeholders so upgrades and reconfigure run smoothly? David. -- David Segonds - PGP 0x1F7A3E7A
