Package: module-init-tools Followup-For: Bug #421115
The problem is that I am trying to mix Ubuntu 7.04 and Debian unstable. In their module-init-tools, Ubuntu people invented -Q option for modprobe, which they then use in their udev. Currently, Debian's module-init-tools come atop of Ubuntu ones, so a problem ensues. There are two ways, either bring Debian-unstable's udev atop of Ubuntu one, or patch modprobe in Debian's module-init-tools and make it eat -Q option in its command line (its semantic is just "be silent", so there should not be any mandatory side-effects).
