Sure, it looks something like this, but the debconf config and ldap is a
seperate thing, this is just the package management side of things:


control:
   PackagesUpdate::
   # Set up variables to describe package infrastructure:
   # variables containing paths to various utilities
   # variables containing commandline arguments
   # etc
      master_states    = ( "$(client_master_config)/selection.states" )
      local_states     = ( "$(local_config)/selection.states" )

      set_selections   = ( "/usr/bin/dpkg --set-selections" )

      apt_get          = ( "/usr/bin/apt-get" )
      apt_update_args  = ( "--quiet" )
      apt_update       = ( "$(apt_get) $(apt_update_args) update" )

      apt_upgrade_args = ( "--assume-yes --fix-broken --quiet" )
      dselect_upgrade      = ( "$(apt_get) $(apt_upgrade_args)
dselect-upgrade" )

      AddInstallable = ( SelectionsUpdated SelectionsSet
SelectionsNotSet DselectUpgraded DselectNotUpgraded )

      actionsequence = ( copy shellcommands )

copy:
   PackagesUpdate::
   # Bring in selections lists
      $(master_states)
         dest=$(local_states)
         owner=root
         group=root
         mode=644
         type=checksum
         server=$(policyhost)
         encrypt=true
         define=SelectionsUpdated

shellcommands:
   # If the selections list has changed, update selections
   PackagesUpdate.SelectionsUpdated::
      "$(set_selections) < $(local_states) > /dev/null 2>&1"
         define=SelectionsSet
         elsedefine=SelectionsNotSet

   # actually run commands to update packages
   PackagesUpdate.SelectionsSet::
      "$(dselect_upgrade) > /dev/null 2>&1"
         define=DselectUpgraded
         elsedefine=DselectNotUpgraded
