Subject: [PATCH 5a/5] deb-pkg: allow alternative hook scripts directory in .deb packages
Date: Wed, 1 Apr 2009 21:43:51 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200904012143.52853.elendil@planet.nl> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <200904012133.37387.elendil@planet.nl>
Hook scripts in the default directory /etc/kernel are also executed by
official Debian kernel packages as well as kernel packages created using
make-kpkg. Allow to specify an alternative hook scripts directory by
exporting the environment variable KDEB_HOOKDIR.
