Late in the day, but should be deprecate module-init-tools with kmod (just a build flag in the spec).

It seems that kmod no longer searches in modprobe.conf. I propose we either do an audit of all of our tools that use this file hard-coded and update them or simply add a symlink to it into modprobe.d and deal with the problem properly in mga3 timeframe.

(In reply to comment #2) > It seems that kmod no longer searches in modprobe.conf. I propose we either do Yep. This turned out to be why the "install ide-controller..." + modprobe ide-controller stuff we discussed earlier stopped working... If I add the same "install..." line in /etc/modprobe.d/some-file.conf, the modprobe would work. > an audit of all of our tools that use this file hard-coded and update them or > simply add a symlink to it into modprobe.d and deal with the problem properly > in mga3 timeframe. I wonder if it would be safer to patch kmod to read /etc/modprobe.conf...
kmod 7-6.mga2 now symlinks /etc/modprobe.conf to /etc/modprobe.d/01_mga-config.conf so kmod picks it up secondly. That way we keep the order m-i-t did for mga1
