Sounds reasonable, this should sufficiently alert anyone customising the file. thanks! grtz, Sander

But, we can install a -custom.conf.README explaining how to use dpkg-divert on it. What do you think? Best, Dylan

Not really, just unusual, as I haven't really needed to use dpkg-divert before, probably because it's rare to have config files outside the usual locations. Using dpkg-divert is fine. Maybe adding a single comment line mentioning dpkg-divert in /usr/share/alsa-card-profile/mixer/profile-sets/default.conf, just above the include of -custom.conf would be helpful. grtz, Sander
