But the reporter actually has a point: update-modules seems to support manual management of the file (i.e. it does not blindly overwrite it), so he is somewhat justified in beliefing that other packages should cope with that. update-modules should return a seperate status code (or even just zero) in the manual case, so that package scripts can detect and maybe ignore that. If that's not already so, I'd file a bug on modutils to this effect. -- Robbe
