Hmmm. You're right. Maybe that should be deferred. I shall think
about this.

As the release notes said, some of these are works in progress. I was
expecting hiccoughs in the reorganized external config import, which I
had to rush to meet the deadline. (I am also expecting that we have
have to work out what the non-Debian equivalents for dpkg-divert are, if
any. It turns out that dbus-daemon has got worse, which has had
knock-on effects.) Get me those Gentoo equivalences, and I can tweak
this stuff for 1.38.
