One thing I forgot to say yesterday: If you do the triggerisation by modifying some dh_foobar-called script called update-foobar, then you do not need to introduce a dependency on the triggers-supporting dpkg. Do as I do in my patch for initramfs-tools (#447611), and you can have update-foobar do its stuff if the triggers are not supported. That means you can upload your change now and not wait for the triggers dpkg to make it into sid or lenny. Of course you should test your change with the triggers dpkg or you'll find that your scripts break when the new dpkg makes it into lenny. (When reading the initramfs-tools patch, you can ditch or ignore the test for DPKG_RUNNING_VERSION as you like, as that's only dealing with some buggy early triggers support in an unreleased Ubuntu version. Also please disregard the comments in the bug report which are not really of any interest unless you happen to like getting distracted by a discussion of the purpose of `x' in test "x$foo" = x and the like.)
