If you use debconf, depend on it (eg Depends: debconf)
You don't control what gets printed per se, you just assign priorities
to your messages and the sysadmin sets the priority according to what
he/she wants to see. Generally, if you give it low priority, a lot of
people will never see it, because they choose not to.
