Hum. If you are talking about configuration scripts, I think that's a question 
of debian policy. A number of times, the best place to put links to init 
firewall script has been discussed here, and it seems there isn't a unique 
answer.

About the place for configuration scripts, I'm thinking in qmail. Original 
package puts them in /var/qmail, but debian packager adds links to them in 
/etc/qmail.

Bye.
