NAME
dh_installinitramfs - install initramfs hooks and setup maintscripts
SYNOPSIS
dh_installinitramfs [
debhelper options] [
-n]
DESCRIPTION
dh_installinitramfs is a debhelper program that is responsible for
installing Debian package provided initramfs hooks.
If dh_installinitramfs installs or (in compat 12 or later) detects
one or more initramfs hooks in the package, then it also automatically
generates the postinst and postrm commands needed to interface
with the Debian initramfs system. These commands are inserted into
the maintainer scripts by dh_installdeb(1).
FILES
- debian/package.initramfs-hook
-
Assumed to be an initramfs hook that will be installed into usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/package in the package build
directory. See HOOK SCRIPTS in initramfs-tools(8) for more
information about initramfs hooks.
OPTIONS
- -n, --no-scripts
-
Do not modify postinst/postrm scripts.
NOTES
Note that this command is not idempotent.
dh_prep(1) should be called
between invocations of this command. Otherwise, it may cause multiple
instances of the same text to be added to maintainer scripts.
