Please reconsider. The purpose of a package management system is to

Please give me your thoughts here. If you were to do, how'd you approach
it ?
Putting this into Debhelper would mean a human intervention is required.
Now imagine 1000 Linux desktops.
Also, if we look at some of our derivatives (Ubuntu), they hide almost
all prompts from the user.
That made me think how would an IT team handle this.....
In LMT, we have a framework to handle scenarios like these.....
Quoting the manpage:
/etc/laptop-mode/conf.d/board-specific/
The board-specific settings framework is for users and
distributors who would like to ship their
local customized settings on top of the default settings shipped
upstream.
Add local customized settings under this folder to override the
system defaults.
Now one could use this to override the upstream defaults. This could
also include hardcoded device names.
What do you say ???
