Hi Glenn,

today's apt-get updated my rt2860-source package from version 1.8.0.0-1 to 
1.8.0.0-3. With this new version the depmod is no longer run. The build 
process now succeeds also for a normal user. I was not aware of the newer 
version when I wrote my last email yesterday.

Would you please close bug #508805 as resolved. Many thanks and my apologies 
for the inconvenience this might have caused.

Achim
