Bug#563748: installation-reports: Provide script to update resume and uswsusp.conf files?



reassign 563748 uswsusp
thanks

Quoting Boris Barbour (boris.barbour@ens.fr):

I doubt this should be in the scope of the installer. As you
mentioned, the job was done properly during the initial install. I
doubt, by the way, that this initial setting of the resume partition
was done by D-I itself. It happened during the installation of the
uswsusp package.

What you want is probably something that belongs to that one
package. It's indeed probably enough to just "dpkg-reconfigure
uswsusp".
