ok, NEWS.Debian.gz:

  The hotplug package has been disabled and should be manually purged.

    This makes the following configuration files obsolete:
    + /etc/hotplug/*.rc and *.agent: the old hotplug files are not used
      anymore. udev rules may be used to selectively disable coldplugging.
    + /etc/hotplug/usb/*.usermap: must be replaced by udev rules.
    + /etc/hotplug/blacklist*: should be replaced by modprobe configuration
      directives (but now /etc/hotplug/blacklist.d/ will be processed by
      modprobe).

What means 'should' here, in the last case ?
I came clear about my question is, why is there still /etc/hotplug when
hotplugging gets mainly configured in /etc/udev... is this just something
in transition or will it be a longterm institution.

- Is modprobe still using that or not ? Let's see...

module-init-tools (3.2-pre9-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release.
  * Removed the out of date French man pages from the source package.
  * Added *temporary* support for /etc/hotplug/blacklist.d/.

Ah...hmpf.

So maybe it's just a slow transition....i wonder who will do the cleanup this 
time.
