No, I think this is more suitable as a "subpolicy", i.e., sgml sub-policy, emacsen-common subpolicy, menu subpolicy, etc. Debian Policy shouldn't have technical details relating to *specific* technical areas like kernel modules; it's just too much overhead, and bloat for the main policy. > What I'm not entirely sure about is how to handle depmod.

Can't you pretty easily check whether depmod needs to be run at boot (using dir mod times vs file mod times) and have it be run from package installation? Sorry if this is an ignorant suggestion, I'm not so familiar with kernel modules. -- .....A. P.
