Package: module-init-tools Version: 3.4-1 Severity: important I have a very old system which has been updated from (at least) woody via sarge to etch. This system still has some diversions in place which have probably originated from updating from modutils to module-init-tools:
diversion of /sbin/depmod to /sbin/depmod.modutils by module-init-tools diversion of /usr/share/man/man8/depmod.8.gz to /usr/share/man/man8/depmod.modutils.8.gz by module-init-tools diversion of /usr/share/man/fr/man8/depmod.8.gz to /usr/share/man/fr/man8/depmod.modutils.8.gz by module-init-tools diversion of /sbin/insmod to /sbin/insmod.modutils by module-init-tools diversion of /usr/share/man/man8/insmod.8.gz to /usr/share/man/man8/insmod.modutils.8.gz by module-init-tools diversion of /usr/share/man/fr/man8/insmod.8.gz to /usr/share/man/fr/man8/insmod.modutils.8.gz by module-init-tools diversion of /sbin/update-modules to /sbin/update-modules.modutils by module-init-tools diversion of /usr/share/man/man8/update-modules.8.gz to /usr/share/man/man8/update-modules.modutils.8.gz by module-init-tools diversion of /usr/share/man/fr/man8/update-modules.8.gz to /usr/share/man/fr/man8/update-modules.modutils.8.gz by module-init-tools diversion of /sbin/modinfo to /sbin/modinfo.modutils by module-init-tools diversion of /usr/share/man/man8/modinfo.8.gz to /usr/share/man/man8/modinfo.modutils.8.gz by module-init-tools diversion of /usr/share/man/fr/man8/modinfo.8.gz to /usr/share/man/fr/man8/modinfo.modutils.8.gz by module-init-tools diversion of /sbin/kallsyms to /sbin/kallsyms.modutils by module-init-tools diversion of /sbin/ksyms to /sbin/ksyms.modutils by module-init-tools diversion of /sbin/lsmod to /sbin/lsmod.Lmodutils by module-init-tools diversion of /usr/share/man/man8/lsmod.8.gz to /usr/share/man/man8/lsmod.modutils.8.gz by module-init-tools diversion of /usr/share/man/fr/man8/lsmod.8.gz to /usr/share/man/fr/man8/lsmod.modutils.8.gz by module-init-tools diversion of /sbin/modprobe to /sbin/modprobe.Lmodutils by module-init-tools diversion of /usr/share/man/man8/modprobe.8.gz to /usr/share/man/man8/modprobe.modutils.8.gz by module-init-tools diversion of /usr/share/man/fr/man8/modprobe.8.gz to /usr/share/man/fr/man8/modprobe.modutils.8.gz by module-init-tools diversion of /sbin/rmmod to /sbin/rmmod.Lmodutils by module-init-tools diversion of /usr/share/man/man8/rmmod.8.gz to /usr/share/man/man8/rmmod.modutils.8.gz by module-init-tools diversion of /usr/share/man/fr/man8/rmmod.8.gz to /usr/share/man/fr/man8/rmmod.modutils.8.gz by module-init-tools diversion of /usr/share/man/man5/modules.5.gz to /usr/share/man/man5/modules.modutils.5.gz by module-init-tools diversion of /usr/share/man/fr/man5/modules.5.gz to /usr/share/man/fr/man5/modules.modutils.5.gz by module-init-tools Due to these diversions, the update from etch to lenny, using the procedure laid out in the release notes, fails: Setting up module-init-tools (3.4-1) ... Installing new version of config file /etc/modprobe.d/aliases ... Installing new version of config file /etc/modprobe.d/arch/i386 ... dpkg-divert: rename involves overwriting `/sbin/insmod' with different file `/sbin/insmod.modutils', not allowed dpkg: error processing module-init-tools (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2 I have a test setup for etch => lenny updates and can therefore reproduce the issue to help finding out what exactly is going wrong.
