Hi
After updating to module-init-tools 3.13-1, querying module information
through modinfo -F starts to fail:
$ /sbin/modinfo -F firmware ath9k_htc
debug:Debugging mask (uint)
nohwcrypt:Disable hardware encryption (int)
$ /sbin/modinfo -F firmware
/lib/modules/2.6.39-1-amd64/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/ath9k_htc.ko
debug:Debugging mask (uint)
nohwcrypt:Disable hardware encryption (int)
The same procedure is used by linux-image's postinst, to query for
missing firmware images:
# dpkg -i ./linux-image-2.6.39-1-amd64_2.6.39-1_amd64.deb

These problems disappear after reverting to module-init-tools 3.12-1:
$ /sbin/modinfo -F firmware ath9k_htc
