            Bug ID: 81151
           Summary: backports installs /etc/depmod.conf to prefer updates/
                    over kernel/ - should be /etc/depmod.d/updates.conf
           Product: Backports project
           Version: unspecified
    Kernel Version: 3.12.21
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: low
          Priority: P1
         Component: Backports
          Assignee: backports@vger.kernel.org
          Reporter: doktor5000@arcor.de
        Regression: No

make install creates /etc/depmod.conf to prefer updates/ over kernel/ modules.
According to depmod manpage, /etc/depmod.conf is not even considered.
This is valid for at least
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/backports/stable/v3.15.1/backports-3.15.1-1.tar.xz

Had to move /etc/depmod.conf to /etc/depmod.d/backports.conf (and changed it to
"search updates built-in").
After next depmod -a module from updates/ tree got preferred, before it was
ignored.


Please fix.
