Package: module-init-tools
Version: 3.10-3
Severity: normal
When calling modprobe -q with a non-existing module, it returns with
exit code 1. According to the manpage, modprobe "normally" will report
an error, and with -q shouldn't, so I believe the exist code should
always be 0, at least that seems to be the assumption in some init
scripts (e.g. binfmt-support).

An upstream contributor clarified that this is not a bug.
If you still want to argue for this change then please do it on the
upstream mailing list.
Obviously I will not make the package incompatible with other
distributions.
