** Description changed:

  Packages in Debian & Ubuntu that are using their own postinstall script
  should remove the logic from there and instead use
  /usr/lib/dkms/common.postinst .  This script contains sufficient logic
  to figure out the correct kernels to build for and accounts for allowing
  builds on a buildd (if a package is ever included in a live media
  build).
  
  The following sample template is sufficient to use instead:
  
  http://linux.dell.com/git/?p=dkms.git;a=blob;f=template-dkms-
- mkdeb/debian/postinst;h=d856c08349812564602ff49335968f6763fc3af8;hb=HEAD
+ mkdeb/debian/postinst;hb=HEAD
