Any resolution here? Every single week I get an error from debsums about this

OK so, after learning more, dpkg-divert doesn't seem to be the
solution for this type of situation where a maintainer script wants to
modify one of its own files.
Next question, then: can /var/lib/xine/xine.desktop simply be excluded
from xine-ui.md5sums? I couldn't find any policy about whic
I'm not a package maintainer, but isn't this just the sort of thing
that dpkg-divert is for?

A better way to fix this bug, and to adhere more to the FHS, would

Hi.
There are basically always checksum problems with the file
/var/lib/xine/xine.desktop
(e.g. when using debsums)
It seems that you automatically update this file in postinst.
So either, also update the hash value (probably the best idea) or
