The last time I checked, the official version of lilo in both squeeze
and sid still did not include any hook scripts.  Joachim Wiedorn's
latest upstream version, 23.0, does include hook scripts; but Joachim
is not the Debian package maintainer for lilo, William Pitcock still is.
And William's official version does not include the hook scripts.
Therefore, opening a Debian bug report against Joachim's unofficial
Debian package is not appropriate.  I do hope that the Technical
Committee eventually gives control of the package to Joachim, but
as far as I know, no decision has yet been made.  (See bug number 587886.)
