Bug#380402: madwifi-source: Unneeded dependancy in generated madwifi-modules-[kernelversion] package

[infernix]

Package: madwifi-source
Version: 0.svnr1680.0.9.1-1
Severity: normal

When building the modules for a custom built kernel which has not been built 
with make-kpkg - and thus isn't installed as a package, the 
madwifi-modules-[kernelversion] package depends on 
[linux|kernel]-image-[kernelversion]. This leads to a dependancy problem with 
apt/dpkg, because even though everything compiles and works fine, 
madwifi-modules-[kernelversion] will be eligible for removal due to the fact 
that the manually installed kernel is not present as an installed package.

I'm running etch but grabbed the latest from unstable and the problem is there 
as well. As an example, fglrx-kernel-src 'recommends' 
[linux-kernel]-image-[kernelversion]. What the exact policy is on this is 
unclear to me, but since this dependancy breaks the usage of the package and 
nothing else, it seems to me that the dependancy is not needed.

Regards,

infernix
