You are right about the current situation, there is no other ectool provider currently working for this system other than that package, but how the dependency is currently would allow other future ectool packages working for this system to be selected.
But yeah, it is better to modify it and if other ectool exists in the future, edit the dependency

The build section for this package and the .service file I added to this repository were explicitly written to circumvent the two situations you mentioned. (This should probably be more visibly documented as the config path does deviate from the official Git README.)
I am not using the install script from the source code repository as it has these paths hardcoded, making it troublesome for packaging.
