I think, in that case, it would be life harder for everybody
involved ;-)
What if we just let the package to run something like:
echo 'skippy' >> /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc
...in the postinst script?
Not yet tested, but should be enough.
And I would like to see probably,
the /usr/share/doc/skippy/skippyrc-default file, linked (or just placed
on) in /etc/skippy/skippyrc, so skippy could do something similar to the
attached diff. After that, it is the user's choice to copy the template
to $HOME/.skippyrc and be happy.
Again, not yet tested.
