On Debian systems configuration files could only be owned by one

policy).

I'm currently creating a debian package for kolab-webclient, that  
depends on several horde apps (imp, kronolith, turba, ...) and change  
the configuration. As I am not allowed to patch files from other  
packages, I wanted to override settings with mine (to have a plug and  
play behavior).
