   * Since the sample module rules were horribly out of date, and had
serious shortcomings, and there are a number of modules packages
extant to provide an example, the sample rules file was removed from
the apckage. I really do think it was doing more harm than good.
closes: Bug#150497, Bug#144207
* Added a new sample postint hook script, that shows how local admins
can enhance the symlinks policy to better suit their needs. This
sample script implements the wishlist items requested by multiple
people. I do not think that these should become the mainstream model;
since the numbers of kernels linked to, the numbers of streams (2.4,
2.5, -selinux, etc) depend so much on the local install. Instead, the
vanilla symlink policy should be the default, as it is now, but now
people can implement whatever policy they choose.
