Bug#374355: [Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#374355: linux-sound-base: apparent missing dependency on module-init-tools

[Elimar Riesebieter]

On Sun, 18 Jun 2006 the mental interface of
Lennert Buytenhek told:

> Package: linux-sound-base
> Version: 1.0.11-2

> When upgrading linux-sound-base, I get the following error, and

> 	ln: creating symbolic link `/etc/modprobe.d/linux-sound-base_noOSS' to `/lib/linux-sound-base/noOSS.modprobe.conf': No such file or directory
> 
> Even though this machine does run a 2.6 kernel, it's an embedded
> machine which doesn't use kernel modules, so it didn't have

Could you please run dpkg-reconfigure linux-sound-base and choose
default in debconfs list. This should work in your case. If it works
we have to extend the explanation in the template.

Thx for reporting
