NAME
       dh_installmodules - register kernel modules

SYNOPSIS
       dh_installmodules [debhelperoptions] [-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.
