Exactly. You'll have to install "module-init-tools", which in Jessie (sorry,
no Jessie around here) is spelt, I believe "kmod" (to keep us awake, I
guess ;-)

So search (either via http://packages.debian.org/, or if you have the package
"apt-file" installed, with

  apt-file search depmod

and find out which package provides that (my hunch is that will be kmod).
