Then this maybe is the point where I need to take a closer look at
piuparts. I hope it can be parametrized. What I want to do is probably
something that our tools don't have built-in checks, I'd like to
_remove_ debconf support from a package and make a formerly
debconf/postinst controlled file a dpkg-conffile, and I of course need
to test a number of combinations including changed conffile, deleted
conffile etc foo.

Greetings
Marc
