I added a module configuration in
/etc/modprobe.d/thinkfan.conf :
options thinkpad_acpi fan_control=1 experimental=1
to make it work.

I installed thinkfan too, no change.
I tried
$ systemctl status thinkfan.service
and got:

On Ubuntu 16.04, I added the following line to /etc/thinkfan.conf
hwmon /sys/devices/virtual/hwmon/hwmon0/temp1_input
Solved the issue. I can now hear myself think, and heavy usage (like compiling
big source trees) makes the fan kicks in as expected. I expect this to have a
very significan
You cannot just reload the module, in most cases it will be "in use" by
some ACPI daemon or somesuch, and thus not unloadable.
I would also very much like not to override the decision of the
thinkpad_acpi author to disable fan_contol by default.

Re #5, adding the modprobe.d file should not affect platforms where the
thinkpad_acpi module is not loaded/used.
Re #6, we can just reload the thinkpad_acpi module after installation,
only if it's loaded.

Title:
In case that non-Thinkpad systems don't suffer from fan_control=1, I'd
suggest to add it nonetheless. After all a working thinkfan after next
reboot is better than nothing.

This works on non-Thinkpads without fan_control=1.
Additionally, it wouldn't help, as the module is most probably loaded and the
option would only be used on the next reboot.

Hi, yes, I know. But isn't this true for all installations? So my point is
that it should be done by apt. Installing the package currently fails to
implement thinkfan.
That's what I meant by:
> I think the necessary modprobe mods are needed as part of the package
installation.

the kernel modules thinkpad_acpi requires a kernel option in order to
support fan control. Simply add a new file /etc/modprobe.d/thinkfan.conf
with the following content:
options thinkpad_acpi fan_control=1
