[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#518112: linux-sound-base: /etc/modprobe.d files without .conf

[Yves-Alexis Perez]

Package: linux-sound-base
Version: 1.0.17.dfsg-4
Severity: normal

Hi,

when selecting Alsa or OSS in linux-sound-base, a different config file is
linked from /lib/linux-sound-base to /etc/modprobe.d.

The files in /lib/l-s-b ends in .conf but the symlinks don't. Since the new
module-init-tools, modprobe spits a lot of warnings but the files in
modprobe.d don't end in .conf, so it'd be nice if the symlinks could be
renamed.

WARNING: All config files need .conf:
/etc/modprobe.d/linux-sound-base_noOSS, it will be ignored in a future
release.


Thanks for the work,
--
Yves-Alexis
