NAME
       dh_installmodules - register kernel modules


SYNOPSIS
       dh_installmodules [debhelper 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, --noscripts
           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.
