No, it's not currently handled by the post install debian script.

Thanks !

But i think it would be nice to mention this in the administration guide too, the part about repository based installations with yum and apt mentions *easy upgrade* but no manual steps...
Most users will assume that all upgrade steps are done by "apt-get upgrade".

Sorry for wasting your time by not RTFMing :)
