The script seems to have disappeared in more recent iterations, and
seems to have been explicitly removed.
$ ls -1 /etc/postinstall/0p*
/etc/postinstall/0p_000_autorebase.dash
/etc/postinstall/0p_update-info-dir.dash
Was that a deliberate change? Not complaining here, just asking, so I
know to recreate resolv.conf if/when my delegated IPv6 prefix changes.
Thanks
