DH_INSTALLMODULES(1)               Debhelper              DH_INSTALLMODULES(1)

NAME
       dh_installmodules - register kernel modules

SYNOPSIS
       dh_installmodules [debhelperĀ options] [-n] [--name=name]

DESCRIPTION
       dh_installmodules is a debhelper program that is responsible for
       registering kernel modules.

       Kernel modules are searched for in the package build directory and if
       found, preinst, postinst and postrm commands are automatically
       generated to run depmod and register the modules when the package is
       installed.  These commands are inserted into the maintainer scripts by
       dh_installdeb(1).

FILES
       debian/package.modprobe
           Installed to etc/modprobe.d/package.conf in the package build
           directory.

OPTIONS
       -n, --no-scripts
           Do not modify preinst/postinst/postrm scripts.

       --name=name
           When this parameter is used, dh_installmodules looks for and
           installs files named debian/package.name.modprobe instead of the
           usual debian/package.modprobe

NOTES
       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 maintainer scripts.

SEE ALSO
       debhelper(7)

       This program is a part of debhelper.
