What I said is that no sane package in Debian/main should need to put
files directly in /etc/opt. That's an oddity, a very unorthodox thing,
it would be like a Debian package in main putting stuff directly in /opt.

I filed the bug because I believe it's the root of the problem you
have with piuparts, but in either case, feel free to disagree on that
one and claim FHS compliance, as far as you don't ask other people to
fix the consequences of putting files in /etc/opt.

Thanks.
