This is a good idea. You can use a netman-gui.postinst file for that.

The content of the netman-gui.postinst could be something like this:


#!/bin/sh
if [ "$1" = "configure" ]; then
     /sbin/ldconfig
fi


while true; do
  read -p "Do you want netman to use a systray icon? (Y/n)" yn
  case $yn in
    [Yy]* ) LINE1="Exec=netman --use-tray-icon"; break;;
    [Nn]* ) LINE1="Exec=netman "; break;;
    * ) LINE1="Exec=netman--use-tray-icon"; break;;
  esac
done


while true; do
  read -p "Do you want netman to automatically connect on startup? (Y/n)" yn
  case $yn in
    [Yy]* ) LINE2=" --auto-conn"; break;;
    [Nn]* ) LINE2=""; break;;
    * ) LINE2="--auto-conn"; break;;
     esac
done


LINE=${LINE1}${LINE2}
sed -i "4i ${LINE}" /etc/xdg/autostart/netman.desktop;

#DEBHELPER#
exit 0


HTH,
