For some of my private elbe-related hobbies I also do a lot of special
installation/configuration that go beyond the capabilities of
finetuning. However, rather than hacking a script in the archive, I
created my own configuration packages [0].

With this I no longer need any archive or finetuning. And since they are
Debian packages, I can easily uninstall some to "undo" some of the
customization on the live system.

As an example, the lighttpd package for the initvm is also using
it. This can be found in elbe/contrib/debathena-transform-lighttpd
