It must be X configuration script. (I do not know they still use it or

But first poster is wrong in terms of fact, I think. If he has read
"Debian FAQ" or any DDP documents in this regards, "dpkg-divert" exists
to do what he wanted.
Any scripts/programs can be replkaced by a do-nothing script without
breaking packaging system.
