Package: kernel-package
Version: 10.054~bpo.1
Severity: important
I must be missing something obvious, but linux-image packages generated by
the kernel-package version above seem to run the configured postinst_hook
script *after* running the bootloader, e.g.:
# dpkg -i /tmp/linux-image-2.6.16.29_local.1_i386.deb
(Reading database ... 18569 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace linux-image-2.6.16.29 local.1 (using
.../linux-image-2.6.16.29_local.1_i386.deb) ...
The directory /lib/modules/2.6.16.29 still exists. Continuing as directed.
Done.
Unpacking replacement linux-image-2.6.16.29 ...
Running postrm hook script /usr/local/sbin/update-lilo.
Setting up linux-image-2.6.16.29 (local.1) ...
Running depmod.
Finding valid ramdisk creators.
Using mkinitramfs-kpkg to build the ramdisk.
You already have a LILO configuration in /etc/lilo.conf
Running boot loader as requested
Testing lilo.conf ...
Testing successful.
Installing the partition boot sector...
Running /sbin/lilo ...
Installation successful.
Running postinst hook script /usr/local/sbin/update-lilo.
#
As you can see, the postinst hook is the last thing the postinst runs. This
contradicts what "man kernel-img.conf" says, it's different from what the
sarge kernel-package did and it also doesn't make sense IMO since the hook
typically sets up the bootloader config file, so it should run before the
bootloader.
Severity important because this will cause a newly installed kernel not to
be bootable.
Thanks,
Martin

Description:
kernel-package - A utility for building Linux kernel related Debian packages.
Closes: 391433 391436 391643 391677 394679
Changes:
kernel-package (10.063) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: Generated postinst fails: Missing Required
paramater 'Old'", thanks to Daniel Jacobowitz. I cleaned up the
postinst as while I was at it, going with readlink -q -m instead of
the built in version. (Closes: #391643).
* Bug fix: "[powerpc] initramfs creation fails with 2.6.18 during
install", thanks to Meelis Roos. This was fixed by the changes above.
(Closes: #394679).
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: No need for any mentioning of bin86", thanks
to Adrian Bunk (Closes: #391677).
* Bug fix: "postinst_hook runs after bootloader", thanks to Martin Buck
(Closes: #391436).
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: A Debian revision is mandatory, but none was
provided", thanks to Marc Haber. Hmm. We were not passing
DEBIAN_REVISION for the clean target, and not doing any sanity checks.
We still don't do sanity checks on clean, but we do pass along the
provided debian revision, so warning is no longer triggered.
(Closes: #391433).
