dpkg-trigger (although not available yet) should fit this task.
The postinst of the package shipping the meta-init-script is more appropriate.
And since the meta-init needs to be added anyway, the postinst can be
updated at the same time. Just one more reason why we should start
with a good toolchain (e.g. adding an dh_installinit extension or
dh_installmetainit)
The overhead differences of simple/templates/dash need to be
evaluated. IIRC dash vs. bash made a noticeable difference, however
the difference between a runner that can only execute the simple (i.e.
no variables expansion) compared to one that can do variable
expansion, compared to dash might be a lot smaller.
best regards,
