Bug#587266: grub: Should install hook scripts under /etc/kernel/

[Ben Hutchings]

Package: src:grub
Version: 0.97-61
Severity: important
Tags: squeeze sid

Currently the installer creates /etc/kernel-img.conf with 'user' hooks
to run update-grub.  However, if the user changes from LILO to GRUB at
a latter stage, this does not happen.  Also, /etc/kernel-img.conf is
not well-documented (the manual page is part of kernel-package which
is not included in a standard installation) and is now deprecated.

All kernel packages (since etch) will call hook scripts under
/etc/kernel/postinst.d etc. when newly installed, upgraded or removed.
GRUB should install scripts there rather than relying on the installer
or the user to edit additional configuration files.

Ben.
