If I understand correctly, the package module-init-tools is for 2.6 kernels, and the modutils components for 2.4 kernels (rmmod, lsmod, insmod) are being renamed with a .modutils extension in debian unstable. I am running debian unstable, and just had trouble installing a commercial package (oss from opensound.com) because apparently other distributions (suse, redhat, slackware, mandrake) are renaming their 2.4 modutils components with .old. I had to redo all the links from my commercial package so they pointed to the files in /sbin with the .modutils extension. I'm certainly not saying debian has to do everything the way everybody else does it, but I'm wondering what the reason is for doing it differently. I would imagine this could also create some problems installing non-commercial packages that aren't debian packages. Thanks.
