Details

linux 4.14-2 added a pacman hook that triggers /usr/bin/depmod on module and kernel updates and installations.
Would it be possible to move this hook to kmod so it doesn't need to be duplicated in other kernels in the arch linux repository such as linux-lts and linux-zen?
Thank you.
This task depends upon

And how would that work, since the name and versions get hard coded into the hook?

Can it check if something in /usr/lib/modules/ was updated?
