I would expect it to re-run *everything* not marked .done in /etc/postinstall, and the autorebase script is never so marked.
The autorebase mechanism has a âfastâ mode, which should be running, as opposed to the âfullâ mode, which is slower. Verify that by the existence of /var/cache/rebase/fullrebase.done.
(Yeah, thatâs right, watch me flex my new autorebase muscles. Beware the Dunning-Kruger effect!)
