The package has a script, intended for internal testing, that runs m-a
build at the end of the pacage build to build a modules package:
debian/modulestest .
Internally (in Xorcom) we have a modified package that builds kernel
modules at dahdi-linux package build time. The down side to that is that
you can only build modules for a single kernel (and have to set that
kernel version ahead of build time. We use an ugly hack to set that as
you really can't edit the build-depends in a package at build time.
So, are you looking for better documentation of debian/modulestest ?
