I think this is not a good idea... You could do some package that update
weekly the wallpaper downloading it from somewhere but a package
changing the image once weekly-monthly I believe it's not good.
You could do something like a GUI that download from some specific
website the new daily/weekly/monthly image/wallpaper/theme and then this
install it and you could say what days of the week update or if you
don't want to update it anymore.
I think this is more easy that making aptitude upgrade all the weeks...
Besides, You need to wait 10 days until package get testing, so it's not
a good idea ;-)

Jose Luis.
