NAME

dh_installmodules - register modules with modutils

SYNOPSIS

dh_installmodules [''debhelper options''? [__-n__?

DESCRIPTION

dh_installmodules is a debhelper program that is responsible for registering kernel modules with modutils.

Files named debian/package.modules will be installed as etc/modutils/package in the package build directory.

Then postinst and postrm commands are automatically generated to register the modules when the package is installed. See dh_installdeb(1) for an explanation of how this works. Note that this will be done for any package this program acts on which has either the above-mentioned file, or has .o files in /lib/modules.

OPTIONS

-n, --noscripts

Do not modify postinst/postrm scripts.

NOTES

Note that this command is not idempotent. ``dh_clean -k'' should be called between invocations of this command. Otherwise, it may cause multiple instances of the same text to be added to maintainer scripts.

SEE ALSO

This program is a part of debhelper.
