Package: sl-modem-daemon
Version: 2.9.9d+e-pre2-7
Severity: normal


Since a couple of weeks initramfs-tools started to add slamr.ko in the
initrd for some reason; even if the module ungrab-winmodem.ko was _not_
copied, as the slamr module does not indicate any dependence, the slamr
module was loaded during the initrd phase.

In /etc/init.d/sl-modem-daemon, line 76, the exit status of
modprobe slamr is evaluated in order to check the availability of the
slamr module, but modprobe does not return an exit status != 0 when the
requested module was already loaded: this way the script can't assure that the
module was loaded in a sane way.

A quick-and-dirty way to solve this issue could be to unload and reload
the module: modprobe will care the correct initialization
(/etc/modprobe.d/sl-modem-daemon.modutils) and the daemon won't die
anymore.

There are also 2 other ways to solve:
1. adding to the slamr module a dependence to ungrab-winmodem;
2. adding a hook to initramfs-tools which _deletes_ the slamr module in
   case it was copied to initrd, which is the solution I'm using now.

Thank you

Mau

   [ maximilian attems ]
   * debian/changelog: Fix missing colons in closes.
   * hook-functions: Add a proper /sys walking dep_add_modules() for a minimal
     initramfs on MODULES=dep. (closes: #395526)
   * mkinitramfs.8: Add examples section, plus improve description of the
     low-level tool and how it fits with update-initramfs.

     Thanks Vagrant Cascadian <vagrant+debianbugs@freegeek.org> for patch.
 .
   [ David Härdeman ]
   * init: Remove cryptopts parsing, not official bootparam. cryptsetup scripts
     parse /proc/cmdline themselves (even in the Etch version).
   * hook-functions: Change copy_exec to use the same source and
     destination path if only one argument is given.
   * hook-functions: Document how copy_exec determines the target path.
   * hook-functions: Add firmware loading support to manual_add_modules().
     (closes: #355881)
   * scripts/local: Ubuntu merge
     - As well as waiting for the existance of the root device node, also check
       to see whether we have a filesystem of some kind on it.  Some devices
       nodes (devmapper/LVM/EVMS, mdadm) will exist before they can be safely
       used. Patch by Scott James Remnant <scott@ubuntu.com>. Changed to
       support both fstype and vol_id.
   * hook-functions: make version check in check_minkver more robust.
