Package: pwc-source Version: 10.0.11-2 Hi, when installing in a chroot a pwc-module compiled against a different kernel than the current one so that no /lib/modules/`uname -r` exists pwc-modules fails install due to unconditionally calling depmod. Same would probably happen if running kernel has no module support.
