No, I don't have my reference to this. You do NOT have multiple

"master" packagethat provides a program to manage the configuration

depend on. This is the practice recommended for building Debian packages.
Really? If You installs dmd and after installs a gtkd package. How do
gtkd give dmd the Include dirs, lib dirs, etc.?
Do You really thinks that dmd.conf contained on dmd package has to
contain all configurations for all the installable packages pending on dmd?
I know that this is the recommended practice for building Debian
packages, but a debian packager told me that the only way to do that is
handle the dmd.conf with preinst, prerm, postinst and postrm scripts.
maybe an alternative would be to just define
/usr/lib/dmd-xxx/
/usr/include/dmd-xxx/
and in dmd.conf:
[Environment]
DFLAGS = -L-L/usr/lib/dmd-xxx -I/usr/include/dmd-xxx
and have any additional library put its stuff directly in those two
directories?
