This is irrelevant to you original question, but I really prefer to
use the POSIX 'command' command in order to determine whether an
executable exists on the path. I feel it is problematic to hard-code
paths into scripts, and any way to avoid that is a good thing.
if command -v update-menus >/dev/null 2>&1;
then
update-menus
fi
I'm CC'ing the debhelper maintainer to see what he thinks, since he says:
if [ -x /usr/bin/update-menus ] ; then update-menus ; fi
