problem with /etc/kernel scripts

Hi folks,

I am using upstream's build procedure for creating Linux kernel packages
("make deb-pkg"). For 2.6.38 it gives you these packages:

	linux-firmware-image_2.6.38-1_amd64.deb
	linux-headers-2.6.38_2.6.38-1_amd64.deb
	linux-image-2.6.38_2.6.38-1_amd64.deb
	linux-libc-dev_2.6.38-1_amd64.deb

Problem: The run-parts scripts in /etc/kernel/postinst.d are run
by the linux-image postinst script before the header files are
installed. Of course this fails for the dkms script on the first
installation of a new kernel version.

Obviously the dkms script should not be run by the postinst script
of linux-image, but of linux-headers. Shouldn't we distinguish
between the hooks for linux-image and for linux-headers somehow?


Any helpful comment would be highly appreciated. Regards

Harri
