|
|
|

=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
B<DEBIAN/postrm>
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
A package can perform several post-removal actions via maintainer
|
|
scripts, by including an executable I<postrm> file in its control
|
|
archive (i.e. I<DEBIAN/postrm> during package creation).
|
|
|
|
The script can be called in the following ways:
|
|
|
|
=over
|
|
|
|
=item I<postrm> B<remove>
|
|
|
|
After the package was removed.
|
|
|
|
=item I<postrm> B<purge>
|
|
|
|
After the package was purged.
|
|
|
|
=item I<old-postrm> B<upgrade> I<new-version>
|
|
|
|
After the package was upgraded.
|
|
|
|
=item I<new-postrm> B<failed-upgrade> I<old-version> I<new-version>
|
|
|
|
If the above B<upgrade> call fails.
|
|
|
|
The I<new-version> is passed only since dpkg 1.18.5.
|
|
|
|
=item I<postrm> B<disappear> I<overwriter-package> I<overwriter-version>
|
|
|
|
After all of the packages files have been replaced.
|
|
|
|
=item I<new-postrm> B<abort-install>
|
|
|
|
If I<preinst> fails during B<install>.
|
|
|
|
=item I<new-postrm> B<abort-install> I<old-version> I<new-version>
|
|
|
|
If I<preinst> fails during B<install> for an upgrade of a removed package.
|
|
|
|
The I<new-version> is passed only since dpkg 1.18.5.
|
|
|
|
=item I<new-postrm> B<abort-upgrade> I<old-version> I<new-version>
