 I had taken this approach into account for a short time, but skipped that, 
 because it looked like the wrong way to me, since I did not had touched 
 anything but files in ../debian/ in all the other packages. 
 But you are right, it works fine this way. 
 Thanks! 
  
 On the other hand: 
 if this package is working so different compared to all the others, is it 
 correct to do it like this? Or should that be adapted, to fit the same 
 concept as the others?
