I'm glad I could help. Probably you want to know that dpkg lets you
configure packages anytime after installation. From 'man dpkg':

"dpkg --configure package ... | -a | --pending
              Reconfigure  an unpacked package.  If -a or --pend
              ing is given instead of package, all  unpacked  but
              unconfigured packages are configured.

              Configuring consists of the following steps:

              1.  Unpack the configuration files, and at the same
              time back up the old configuration files,  so  that
              they can be restored if something goes wrong.

              2. Run postinst script, if provided by the package."
