I think you missed the point that perry doesn't care about:  pkgs using /etc
are littering /etc, and there isn't a clean way of knowing what /etc files
affect pkgs, and which ones are for the base system.

I proposed /etc/pkg/... which doesn't preclude having them in /etc
(obviously, they are in /etc).
