I've opted for a different approach that doesn't require patching the
upstream source. The /usr/bin/qgis wrapper will now source options to
pass to the actual binary from /etc/defaults/qgis. The QGIS_OPTS
variable includes --noversioncheck to skip the version check on startup.

The changes have been committed in git, and will be included in the next
upload.

Kind Regards,

Bas
