OK, I have been playing with this. If we create a tarball with the up to date services and protocols files along with the following script named update-iana-files, the install procedure would be merely: install -m644 -o root -g root services protocols /etc install -m744 -o root -g root update-iana-files /usr/sbin The update-iana-files is below.
