    I'm trying to install the xfree86 packages with the /opt directory as
    root. I've tried using --instdir but the install fails on the
    pre/postinst scripts. Is there an easy way to do this without having to
    build my own package? If not is there a way I can modify the binary
    debs without having to rebuild them from deb-src?
