That logic is not present in the -trunk kernels currently present in testing. But relief is in sight. Good. Someday they will migrate from unstable to testing. Let's hope testing doesn't freeze first!

The symlink_hook script originally shipped as a sample script in kernel-package, and I modified it. But the original was a postinst hook, not a postrm hook. So it's "mine" on two counts: I modified it from the original, and I installed it in /etc/kernel/postrm.d as well as in /etc/kernel/postinst.d. zipl (the boot loader itself) is part of s390-tools. The moral of the story: if commands in your hook script write to STDOUT, you may need to redirect output to STDERR or some other place to avoid confusing debconf. If you don't, it may cause a mysterious error even if the hook script exits with a return status of zero! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
