I understand that. Currently, the add-ons call the update- script, so  
the script should remain as long as the add-on packages have not been  
fixed. The transition plan suggested in triggers.txt.gz says that  
update-<package> should be modified to call dpkg-trigger, but I'm  
under the impression that in my case, it should just become a no-op.  
Note that I'm the only maintainer for Yorick add-on packages so far,  
so I have a good understanding of the situation and I can usually  
reach a consensus  with myself easily :-) But, still, I prefer to  
think twice before I upload...

By the way, the postinst/postrm lines which call update-yorickdoc in  
add-on packages are added by dh_installyorick. I plan on modifying it  
right away to not generate these lines anymore. After that, a simple  
rebuild of the add-on packages would be sufficient to fix them.

Regards, Thibaut.
