maintainer script
maintainer script
(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.
