No bug, from /usr/share/doc/module-init-tools/changelog.Debian.gz:

module-init-tools (3.1-pre2-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release. (Closes: #254204)
  * Now /etc/modprobe.d/ is processed by modprobe. This means that
    /etc/modprobe.conf and /lib/modules/modprobe.conf are not needed
    anymore and update-modules is now a no-op. Executable scripts in
    /etc/modprobe.d/ are not supported anymore.
    /etc/modprobe.conf will be removed or moved to /etc/modprobe.d/.
...

apt-listchanges is very useful for things like this.
