Bug#591683: linux-2.6: /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/modules.devname not removed on purge



Package: linux-2.6
Severity: normal

I recently installed the 2.6.35-rc6 packages, and purged 2.6.34 and
2.6.35-rc5.  In doing so, I got a dpkg error message about the inability
to remove the non-empty directory /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/ .  I
checked, and both of these directories contain "modules.devname" files,
which apparently got generated and not removed.
