Description:
depmod(8) man page mentions a depmod.d configuration dir that is similar to modprobe.d. We include one in the package, but not the other. Filed as a feature since nothing breaks without depmod.d... but then, nothing breaks without modprobe.d either. It would just be nice to know that depmod configuration "officially" exists in more than just depmod.conf(5). Additional info: * module-init-tools 3.11.1-2, or latest svn Steps to reproduce: * pacman -S module-init-tools * Look for /etc/depmod.d/ |
This task depends upon

Again, I realize you could do the same thing without depmod.d existing beforehand, but it is good to know the option is there (and modprobe.d is a precedent).
(By the way, I touched up http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Kernel_Module_Package_Guidelines with a short bit about the updates subdirectory. I'd appreciate it if someone more official than I could give it a look-see.)
By the way, there is nothing called /lib/modules/`uname -r`/**/updates.
