Oops, I mean "arla" not "alsa". Sigh.
The question is how I should set up *my* arla packages to work similarly to
alsa, lmsensors etc. I would prefer to have a -modules-2.2.12 package in the
distribution, or whatever the stock kernel is going to be though. Are there
going to be a alsa-modules-2.2.12 and lmsensors-modules-2.2.12 etc? It seems
futile to go through all the trouble of packaging things and then have our
users compiling stuff into packages.
I'm considering orphaning it, not because I don't want to maintain it but
because I just don't have the time to figure out how to do it properly. There
isn't really a lot of work, but it does need another package or two and some
coherent approach to kernel modules.
