--- Begin Message ---Package: isc-dhcp-client Severity: wishlist Please add a hook script /usr/lib/resolvconf/dpkg-event.d/isc-dhcp-client. The purpose this script is to cause isc-dhcp-client to take notice of the installation or removal of the resolvconf package. If resolvconf has just been installed while dhclient instances are running, for example, then each dhclient instance should register any nameserver addresses already acquired via DHCP with resolvconf. The dhclient-enter-hooks.d/resolvconf hook script already does the right thing if dhclient is started when resolvconf was already installed. This script also illustrates what needs to be done when resolvconf is installed while dhclient is running. See below for an excerpt from resolvconf's README file giving general information about resolvconf packaging-event hook scripts. Please see the README file itself for much more background information. === Excerpt from resolvconf README file === Any package, foo, that supports supplying information to resolvconf should include a hook script /usr/lib/resolvconf/dpkg-event.d/foo which, when called with the argument "install", takes whatever actions are necessary to cause the program(s) in foo to supply their nameserver information to resolvconf; and when called with the argument "remove" takes whatever actions are appropriate given that the resolvconf package has been removed (and, in being removed, may have removed foo's nameserver information). The hook script thus has the following form. #!/bin/sh # # /usr/lib/resolvconf/dpkg-event.d/foo # # The resolvconf dpkg-event hook script for the foo package # if foo_is_running ; then if [ "$1" = "install" ] ; then foo-ctrl send-nameserver-info-to-resolvconf elif [ "$1" = "remove" ] ; then ... fi fi If foo is controlled by an initscript whose methods take appropriate actions conditional upon resolvconf's presence then something like the following might be appropriate. force_reload_foo() { if which invoke-rc.d >/dev/null 2>&1 ; then invoke-rc.d foo force-reload elif [ -x /etc/init.d/foo ] ; then /etc/init.d/foo force-reload fi } case "$1" in install|remove) force_reload_foo ;; esac The hook script is called (with argument "install") from resolvconf's postinst "configure" method and (with "remove") from resolvconf's postrm "remove" method. Foo's hook script is called with argument "install" if and only if foo is fully installed both when resolvconf's preinst install runs and when its postinst configure runs. The hook script is called with argument "remove" if and only if foo is fully installed when resolvconf's postrm remove runs. The hook script must be owned by root and have its execute permission bit set and must have the same name as the package that owns it. Arguments other than "install" and "remove" are reserved for future use and must be silently ignored.
