Package: debhelper
Version: 4.2.31
Severity: important
dh_installmodules is used to create postinst and postrm scripts for
debianized kernel modules. The problem is the following :
I'm running kernel 2.6.x and I'm building a bundle of two debian
packages (kernel-image-2.6.y and foobar-module for 2.6.y)
Install of both packages goes well but when I try to load the foobar
module after booting my new 2.6.y kernel, foobar is not known. The
problem comes from the update-modules script : update-modules only
updates the running kernel's modules.dep. In my case, 2.6.x modules.dep
got updated when installing the foobar-module package for 2.6.y. Looking
at the alsa-source, I found that they didn't use dh_installmodules at all
and wrote their own postinst and postrm template scripts to call depmod -a
using the associated System.map file (in my case System.map-2.6.y) and
specifying explicitly the kernel version (2.6.y).
depmod command looks like this :
depmod -A -F /boot/System.map-2.6.y 2.6.y
By the way, I've only been testing with 2.6 kernels but I think the
problem is the same with the 2.4 series.
Could you change how dh_installmodules behaves and generate postinst and
postrm scripts that takes this problem into account ?
Thank you in advance.
