As you only want this for a single package and only once, I'd suggest you create
a hook instsoft.FOO (for a proper class FOO) that does

- rm 90mypackage

Hmm. Ok. So by using apt-get in the hook-script I also have to
remove the package from the PACKAGE_CONFIG-entry? Right?

This should not be necessary, no. Having the package in the package_config/X
just becomes a no-op as it is installed already.

Ok. But I should have mentionend that the same class is used to install a new machine with this package. Don't I have to add some logic to disable the "apt-get install" when detecting FAI_ACTION=install?
