I'm not quite sure what part you would like to simplify. My patches do
hardcode this value in the (generated) postinst instead but it's
effectively the same value that is injected in that field and that is
hardcoded in the postinst.

The number of lines of code is the same in both cases. Maybe you move
one line from debian/rules in the postinst, but I don't think it's
a real improvement.

Cheers,
