Err, sorry? The change I suggest is a documentation one, that can
cripple nothing.

“I do not think it is a good idea” was my justification for *not*
changing anything but document how to change something manually for
people who want it.

I am suggesting to document how to enable the full functionnality of
sonar in a proper way under a Debian system, that is: defining a dpkg
status override, so that the setuid mode is preserved on upgrades.
