Package: module-init-tools
Version: 3.3-pre11-4
Severity: wishlist
File: /etc/modprobe.d/aliases

Hi Marco,

As I told you in another bug report, I'm working on packaging OpenCBM
(ITP: #437316), which includes a kernel module to handle /dev/cbm (c 10
177, registered in the Linux Device List).

I currently have the utils package provide a modprobe alias ("alias
char-major-10-177 cbm") for our udev-deprived friends, but I think m-i-t
would be a better place for it, given that the module package (which
recommends m-i-t) could be installed alone.  What do you think?

Fix the module to make it provide its own alias using something like:

MODULE_ALIAS_CHARDEV(10, 177);
