my intent for this patch is for it to be executed only during the boot dkms module rebuild process. from brief testing, i've seen that this is the case (it is only executed at boot or runlevel change). i do not believe that dkms_autoinstaller is actually called during the postinst (unless i'm missing something). i do see that in the postinst, update-rc.d is used to update the contents of the script, but it does not appear to be called there. mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
