For a specialized installation of mine I maintain a certain
minimalistic package that provides asterisk-config-custom. Just for the
kicks I had modules.conf disable automatic module loading.

Building yet another package was very simple with dh. I see no reason to
try to script it (though others may disagree). Having a skeleton of a
minimalistic package may be useful and may save work as a better
starting point: an empty configuration is not usable. Would a directory
with minimal working configuration be of use?
