Description:
Although the module.symbols md5sums apparently haven't changed, upon updating to the new kernel version, the r8168 module would not load. I had to use ABS to rebuild it.

I noticed too that graysky's repo-ck also required a rebuild of his provided modules despite the fact that he was under the impression that this would not be necessary with the 3.12.4 kernel. So maybe this might be necessary for more than just the r8168 package? I don't know because that is the only 3rd party module I use besides broadcom-wl (which also required a rebuild).

Additional info:
* community/r8168 8.037.00-2

Steps to reproduce:
Update the 3.12.4-1-ARCH and try to load the r8168 module.

I marked this as x86_64 because that is the only architecture that I have available to me at the moment. But this might very well affect i686 also.
This task depends upon
