I'm against this patch.
I was planning to write some "DKMS Policy" later tonight (together with an
announcemente/call for testing of dh_dkms), and one of my points was "the
package name must be $something-dkms".
This is coherent with other teams in Debian: lib*-perl, python-*, lib*-cil,
and so on. Even module-assistant-driven modules seem to have settled on *-
source, but I admit I haven't checked this thoroughly.
IMHO we can discuss whether it should be *-dkms or *-source-dkms, but I don't
want people messing with package namespace.
Giuseppe, what do you think?
Kindly,
David
