Sent to experimental since this upload includes a new upstream and some bug fixes might be too much for a release and, also, the current modutil package has not transitioned to sarge yet. These packages might be useful for users that have any of the 'important' issues fixed below. The latest upstream release also only introduces bug fixes (mostly for ARM and one alias) and no new code (save for configure, which only affects the source package), see the Changelog. . [ - Upstream source code changes - ] [util/alias.h] - Included RedHat's patch that modifies the behaviour of modprobe for some systems that do not provide a floppy disk (like s390, powerpc...) - Updated some aliases definitions. [ - Upstream documentation changes - ] [man/modules.conf.8] - Add a note saying that commands are executed through system() and, thus, will go through /bin/sh (Closes: #76209) - Add a reference to update-modules and also document that users running Debian should not modify this file but use the files under /etc/modutils/ (Closes: #166943) [man/lsmod.8] - Added modinfo(8) to SEE ALSO (Closes:#150423) - Added a note on how to list all modules (Closes: #215855) [man/modprobe.8] - Added modinfo(8) to SEE ALSO (Closes:#150423) - Added modprobe.conf(5) to SEE ALSO (Closes: #174181) - Fixed grammar mistakes spotted by Jeremy S Bygott (Closes: #160454) [man/insmod.8] - Added modinfo(8) to SEE ALSO (Closes:#150423) [man/depmod.8] - Added a note regarding what is and what is not an exposure when running 'depmod -r' (Closes: #90486) . [ - Package configuration changes - ] [debian/conf/aliases] - Added missing aliases to modutils based on patches from other vendors (Fedora Core 2 and Mandrake 10) and from the modules defined in module-init-tools for kernels 2.6 and above. These include aliases for: - pppoe (Closes: #262941, #263224, #272581) - ipsec (Closes: #203578 - ide-prob-mod incantation aliases due to module name changes done in 2.4.22 (Closes: #228031, #210516) - psmouse (Closes: #230020) - zftape (Closes: #70557) - raw (Closes: #228688) - cpuid and msr (Closes: #243681) - ppp_mppe (Closes: #173938) [debian/conf/actions] - Only use the actions for bttv modules in pre-2.4.17 kernels, as this is not needed afterwards (Closes: #146819) . [ - Package's script changes - ] [debian/update-modules] - Apply patch to avoid loading configuration files suffixed with '.orig' as per Joey's request (Closes: #54967) - Avoid also loading RCS files (,v suffix) as requested by Mark Histed (Closes: #118647) - Do not use depfile statements if commented in modules.conf (Closes: #69754) - Abort with exit code 3 if configuration files are not automatically generated (Closes: #166531) - Add a check in addfile() so that dangling symlinks are avoided, the code should not get there (because of the previous -f check) but this should avoid the issue observed by users which breaks upgrades (Closes: #220382) - More verbose message when encoutering errors executing scripts under /etc/modutils as it has been reported by a user that there might be files with incorrect execute permissions set (Closes: #253508) - Removed trailing " when setting the HEADER (Closes: #173746, #225087) - Add the architecture information when telling the user that there is none available (and will use the generic) (Closes: #228258) [debian/rc.modutils] - Removed extraneous space in init script output (Closes: #219206) - Warn if there are no modules for the current running kernel (Closes: #54999) - Use 'depmod -A' instead of 'depmod -a' for faster startups (Closes: #110732, #132401, #159708) .
