[pkg-nvidia-devel] Bug#476643: update-modules in nvidia-kernel-sources?

Package: nvidia-kernel-legacy-96xx-source
Version: 96.43.05-1
Severity: minor


AFAICS the postinst and postrm scripts in the nvidia kernel module
sources use update-modules. This triggers a warning message at
install time of the generated nvidia module saying

************************************************************************
*
* The update-modules command is deprecated and should not be used!
*
************************************************************************

Maybe it would be possible to remove update-modules from these scripts?
I got this error message for 2.6.24, too, so I would say it is safe.
Probably the other nvidia source packages are affected by this, too.

Harri
