It's not a duplicate of the modules. Instead, there are two sets of drivers, the drivers supplied by the 2.4 kernel and the drivers provided by the pcmcia-cs source. The kernel-image package now, incorrectly, includes some symlinks from the /lib/modules/<k>/pcmcia directory to the kernel modules located elsewhere in the /lib/modules/<k> directory tree. Since these symlinks are located in the location where the standalone drivers have always resided, a conflict occurs and "--force-overwrite" is necessary. See Bug#128662 for more information. - Brian
