Public bug reported:

module postinst script need to run depmod  to update module.dep: current
postinst reads like this:

  /sbin/depmod -q || true

but if the user is running different version of the kernel during
install, e.g. running 2.6.24-17 when installing 2.6.24-18, depmod
creates modules.dep in /lib/modules/2.6.24-17-generic, not in
/lib/modules/2.6.24-18-generic

it would be better put version infomation to depmod line, e.g.

  /sbin/depmod 2.6.24-18-generic -q || true
