Well, this is true for each and every file installed by a Debian package. I don't see why we should mention that in this particular README file. See the documentation of dpkg-statoverride(8) for a tool that might help you achieve what you're trying to do. However, note that you are entirely on your own regarding that kind of setup including maintaining it whenever any of the affected packages change. Anyway, why did you switch from nagios:nagios to icinga:icinga in the first place?
