[Pkg-mol-devel] Bug#410461: Bug#410461: (no subject)

[Gaudenz Steinlin]

Hi Bin

Sorry for that. It was not possible to fix all the bugs with the new
upload. The top priority now is to get an RC bug free version of mol
into lenny. With the current freeze policy I suspect it will not be
possible to fix this bug before lenny. 

As far as I understand your bug the modules.* files end up in the
mol-modules-* package which you build with kernel-package for your self
compiled kernel which is also built with kernel-package. Correct?

I'm not sure why these files end up in the kernel module package built
by kernel-package and if this is even a bug in mol-source or rather a
bug in kernel-package. Thus I'm a bit reluctant to add your fix because
it unconditionally deletes these files.

Could you please provide the commands you used to build your kernel deb
and the mol-modules deb.
