,----[ Manual page make-kpkg(1) line 145 ] | --overlay-dir /path/to/directory | The specified directory should contain files that will be placed | in the ./debian directory of the kernel sources, in preparation | to building the debian packages. The files will replace any‐ | thing in /usr/share/kernel-package that would normally be placed | there, and it is up to the user to make sure that the files in | the overlay directory are compatible with make-kpkg. If you | break make-kpkg with an overlay file, you get to keep the | pieces. The same effect can be achieved by setting the | environment variable KPKG_OVERLAY_DIR. | | Please note that overlay-dir/Control and overlay-dir/changelog | are special, and variable sub‐ stitution is performed on these | files. Use /usr/share/kernel-package/Control and | /usr/share/kernel-package/changelog files as templates. | | If a overlay-dir/post-install executable (or executable script) | exists, it shall be run immedi‐ ately after ./debian is | populated. The script shall be executed in the ./debian | directory. This can be used, For instance, to delete files the | user does not want, or to take actions other than simple | replacement. `---- manoj -- So far we've managed to avoid turning Perl into APL. :-) Larry Wall in <199702251904.laa28...@wall.org> Manoj Srivastava <sriva...@acm.org> <http://www.golden-gryphon.com/> 4096R/C5779A1C E37E 5EC5 2A01 DA25 AD20 05B6 CF48 9438 C577 9A1C -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
