8 dh_installmodules is a debhelper program that is responsible for registering
9 kernel modules with modutils.
11 Files named debian/package.modules will be installed as etc/modutils/package
12 in the package build directory.
14 Then postinst and postrm commands are automatically generated to register
15 the modules when the package is installed. See
17 for an explanation of how this works. Note that this will be done for any
18 package this program acts on which has either the above-mentioned file, or
19 has .o files in /lib/modules.
25 for a list of options common to all debhelper commands.
28 Do not modify postinst/postrm scripts.
32 for a list of environment variables that affect all debhelper commands.
34 Note that this command is not idempotent. "dh_clean -k" should be called
35 between invocations of this command. Otherwise, it may cause multiple
36 instances of the same text to be added to maintainer scripts.
