It would be nicer if you did the change automatically from
post_install/post_upgrade. Detecting the presence of the include is
simple done with grep, and adding it is a simple echo. Other packages
touch this file directly and will get changed to dropping an
ld.so.conf.d file in the future, those packages will stop working if
this ld.so.conf change isn't done.
The filesystem package touches the group and passwd files in the same
way, so there's no excuse not to do this change automatically.
