Package: syslinux

Severity: wishlist

When a user installs grub, it's menu.lst or grub.conf is automatically
populated with entries for each kernel.  When a kernel is installed or
removed, /etc/kernel-img.conf knows to run "update-grub" to update
that list.

There is no equivalent update-extlinux(8), which makes it just that
little bit too much effort to use extlinux instead of grub on my
normal workstations.  I wish there was such a script.
