Debian One of the scripts (preinst, prerm, postinst, postrm)

that may be included in a Debian binary package. These

scripts may create and/or remove symlinks, files or

directories that, for some reason, could not be done directly

by dpkg. Maintainer scripts frequently create or update the

symlinks in the /etc/rc?.d directories and start, stop, or

restart daemons.
