Package: et131x-source

The claim that modprobing the module unconditionally for the sake of usability 
is not really strong. The best thing for a user is automatic installation of 
this module via the conglomerate module packages, along with the linux-image 
package. In this case it would be ridiculous to have every out of tree driver 
that is part of the conglomerate to modprobe itself.

Another use case is installation of module binary package in a live debian cd 
chroot, automatic modprobe of module makes no sense in the build chroot.

Unconditional modprobe of out of tree kernel drivers does not scale to all 
possible uses of the module source package, so I could only plead with you 
that you could change your mind about this cheap, one-time executed, small 
piece of code.

Thanks, Kel.
