Bug ID: 81151
Summary: backports installs /etc/depmod.conf to prefer updates/
over kernel/ - should be /etc/depmod.d/updates.conf
Product: Backports project
Version: unspecified
Kernel Version: 3.12.21
Hardware: All
OS: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: low
Priority: P1
Component: Backports
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Regression: No

make install creates /etc/depmod.conf to prefer updates/ over kernel/ modules. According to depmod manpage, /etc/depmod.conf is not even considered. This is valid for at least
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/backports/stable/v3.15.1/backports-3.15.1-1.tar.xz

Had to move /etc/depmod.conf to /etc/depmod.d/backports.conf (and changed it to "search updates built-in").
After next depmod -a module from updates/ tree got preferred, before it was ignored.

Please fix.
