NAME
       dh_installmodules - register modules with modutils

SYNOPSIS
       dh_installmodules [debhelper options] [-n]

DESCRIPTION
       dh_installmodules is a debhelper program that is responsi-
       ble 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 gener-
       ated to register the modules when the package is
       installed. See dh_installdeb(b) 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. Oth-
       erwise, it may cause multiple instances of the same text
       to be added to maintainer scripts.

SEE ALSO
       debhelper(r)

       This program is a part of debhelper.
