Bug#107151: apt: DPkg::Post-Install-Pkgs

[Igor Belyi <ibelyi@yahoo.com>]

Package: apt
Version: 0.5.3
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

In attempt to automate debsums_gen for the packages without md5sums I ran
into necessity to introduce DPkg::Post-Install-Pkgs configuration directive.
This also makes DPkg directive set more symmetric. The change is very
simple but I've listed patch in the end of the message anyway.

I hope it can be introduced in the mainstream version.

Thanks,
Igor
