NAME¶
dh_installmodules - register modules with modutils
SYNOPSIS¶
dh_installmodules [
debhelper options] [
-n]
[
--name= name]
DESCRIPTION¶
dh_installmodules is a debhelper program that is responsible for
registering kernel modules.
Kernel modules are searched for in the package build directory and if found,
preinst,
postinst and
postrm commands are automatically
generated to run
depmod and register the modules when the package is
installed. These commands are inserted into the maintainer scripts by
dh_installdeb(1).
FILES¶
- debian/package.modprobe
- Installed to etc/modprobe.d/package.conf in the
package build directory.
- debian/package.modules
- These files were installed for use by modutils, but are now
not used and dh_installmodules will warn if these files are
present.
OPTIONS¶
- -n, --noscripts
- Do not modify preinst/postinst/postrm
scripts.
- --name=name
- When this parameter is used, dh_installmodules looks
for and installs files named debian/ package.name.modprobe
instead of the usual debian/ package.modprobe
NOTES¶
Note that this command is not idempotent.
dh_prep(1) should be called
between invocations of this command. Otherwise, it may cause multiple
instances of the same text to be added to maintainer scripts.
