[Pkg-dkms-maint] Bug#621846: dkms looses list of modules to build

Version: 2.1.1.2-6

If I deinstall all linux-kernel-* packages (I know I shouldn't, but
accidents happen) and then reinstall linux-image-2.6-amd64 and its
dependencies, then dkms doesn't build any modules.

	# ls -l /var/lib/dkms/
	total 4
	-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6 Jul  8  2008 dkms_dbversion

It seems to have lost its list of modules to build, even though no
module source package has been changed or deinstalled. I have to
manually run dpkg-reconfigure for the module source packages, and
hope.

If I just reinstall the running kernel package, then there is no such
problem.

Harri
