retitle 481542 please use triggers for update-grub thanks I looked now at the man-db package which is a very easy implementation for triggers. I think it would be enough for us to do it like they did.
debian/triggers: interest /boot debian/*.postinst: if [ "$1" = triggered ]; then update-grub fi >IMHO it's important to consider how triggers would handle a situation >such as an apt run that removed the running kernel added a new kernel, >and then failed.

Well if removing the current installed kernel suceeded, but installing the new one failed, then I think you don't have any kernel at all in /boot Removing the current kernel should tell dpkg to run our trigger. I don't think that if installing a new kernel fails, that the trigger doestn't get called, as long as the whole install/update apt/dpkg process keeps running But I try to reproduce this. Luckly we currently have currently anyway a package in experimental. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
