Description

Currently many system tweaks are directly written in the Live CD tree for ease of implementation. However this will be of poor usefulness for building ARM images since we'll have to port these tweaks to the ARM tree. As a result a better approach is to move every tweak into a Debian package. The following tool, config-package-dev, may be of precious help:

We need to define what tweak packages there will be (names), put stuff in them, test for the Live build and test for the ARM build. Sub-tickets required!

Another interesting tool to move our tweaks to standard Debian packages can be dpkg-divert:

http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ap-pkg-diversions.html

It allows to ship a modified version of a file that another package is already shipping, while preserving it from being modified when the original package is updated/upgraded.
