I don't understand why /etc/init.d/powernowd* scripts are used to set the default scaling governor at boot time, I think this is not strictly powernowd-related and should be moved into a separate package (with a /etc/default/scaling_governor). the point of this package should be just starting the daemon, not configuring the system. Moreover, you cannot easily change the default scaling governor since it looks hardcoded into /etc/init.d/powernowd. Since this setting cannot be achieved with sysctl.conf (it has to be done per-cpu possibly in multiple cpus (and you can't do globbing in sysctl.conf - at least from the docs)) I thought putting the governor setting in a separate package could be a cleaner approch, what do you think?
