06:32 <mps> cy8aer: aren't there post install/upgrade trigger in debian to run script/program when package is installed upgraded (moved discussion here from #asahi-dev)

06:40 <cy8aer> Yes there must be (for e. g. generating grub-update). But I do not know where and I just search them. So for all with debian knowledge: where is the post-install hook for kernels? I hope not in the package itself...

06:43 <cy8aer> I am just searching... yeah, english

06:51 <mps> hm, after about 5 years when left debian I even forgot how to put them. https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/357840/how-can-i-create-a-proper-debian-postinst-and-postrm-script

07:01 <cy8aer> mps: Yes there are in package pre/post-install scripts. But I hope that these are also trigger something outside of the kernel package. If you put the m1n1-update-process in the in package post-install you have some impacts for the generic package (I am thinking about the future with a vanilla debian kernel and the asahi stuff included)

07:02 <cy8aer> If you put it inside the package the kernel must depend on m1n1, u-boot, and the asahi-scripts for all. And that I try to avoid that.

07:03 <cy8aer> s/trigger/triggering/g

07:04 <mps> yes, for now this is not easy to integrate into distros with mainline kernel

07:04 <mps> maybe it is easy but I have no idea how

07:06 <mps> maybe pre/post scripts should be more 'smart', i.e. examine hardware on which it runs

07:21 <cy8aer> I am just working on it as a little project and there will be a in kernel post-install of course.

07:27 <mps> here is what I added to alpine https://git.alpinelinux.org/aports/tree/testing/u-boot-asahi/update-u-boot-asahi

07:28 <mps> though it is in u-boot-asahi pkg and not in kernel pkg

15:12 <tobhe> cy8aer: i think i have mentioned this before, but I have implemented a lot of this for Ubuntu and it should be easy to reuse in debian. see https://github.com/UbuntuAsahi/asahi-scripts/blob/ubuntu/debian/patches/ubuntu-kernel-hook.patch

15:13 <cy8aer> tobhe: thank you for the link.

15:15 <tobhe> re m1n1 and u-boot: i am also planning to get m1n1 and u-boot into the official debian repos so all the derivatives can use them

15:16 <cy8aer> yes I saw that and it should be the stuff I am looking for.

15:18 <tobhe> oh you might be interested in the #debian-bananas channel then

15:19 <tobhe> I have btw of course asked glanzmann before doing this to make sure it doesn't break anything for him

18:42 <opticron> huh, debian never installs the latest kernel package for some reason

18:43 <opticron> it auto-installed the 00514 kernel and sees the 00515 kernel, but isn't pulling it :/

18:47 <opticron> looks like everything else installed as expected

19:44 <RemiSca> on Debian, I use a hook script in /etc/kernel/postinst.d to trigger an update-m1n1 script

19:45 <RemiSca> Debian documentation : https://kernel-team.pages.debian.net/kernel-handbook/ch-update-hooks.html

19:46 <RemiSca> it avoids a kernel package customization

20:02 <RemiSca> I just realized it's what tobhe does, sorry

21:03 <cy8aer> @RemiSca: Yes that was the hooking path I was looking for.
