DH_INSTALLINITRAMFS(1) Debhelper DH_INSTALLINITRAMFS(1)
dh_installinitramfs - install initramfs hooks and setup
maintscripts
dh_installinitramfs [debhelper options] [-n]
dh_installinitramfs is a debhelper program that is responsible for
installing Debian package provided initramfs hooks.
If dh_installinitramfs installs or detects one or more initramfs
hooks in the package, then it also automatically generates the
noawait trigger update-initframfs command needed to interface with
the Debian initramfs system. This trigger is inserted into the
packaging by dh_installdeb(1).
debian/package.initramfs-hook
Assumed to be an initramfs hook that will be installed into
usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/package in the package build
directory. See HOOK SCRIPTS in initramfs-tools(8) for more
information about initramfs hooks.
-n, --no-scripts
Do not add the update-initramfs trigger even if it seems like
the package might need it. The option is called --no-scripts
for historical reasons as dh_installinitramfs would previously
generate maintainer scripts that called update-initramfs -u.
Use this option, if you need to interface with the
update-initramfs system that is not satisfied by the noawait
trigger (e.g. because you need the extra guarantees and
head-aches of a await trigger).
Note that this command is not idempotent. dh_prep(1) should be
called between invocations of this command. Otherwise, it may
cause multiple instances of the same text to be added to triggers
file.
