Subject: loop-aes-source: initrd complains about missing module loop.ko_orig
Package: loop-aes-source
Version: 2.2d-4
Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***
Hello,

seems that I'm the only user of loop-aes ;)

Okay, building a kernel with
laptop:/usr/src/linux# make-kpkg --revision 01 --append-to-version \-nb
kernel-image modules-image --added-patches mppe --config oldconfig
--initrd
gives me the files:
laptop:/usr/src# ls *.deb
kernel-image-2.6.10-nb_01_i386.deb
loop-aes-2.6.10-nb_2.2d-4+01_i386.deb
loop-aes-ciphers-2.6.10-nb_2.0i-3+01_i386.deb
thinkpad-modules-2.6.10-nb_5.8-1+01_i386.deb

When I now install the kernel-image (before I have purged the same
version) I get the following message:
[...]
Setting up kernel-image-2.6.10-nb (01) ...
/usr/sbin/mkinitrd: add_modules_dep_2_5: modprobe failed
FATAL: Module loop.ko_orig not found.
WARNING: This failure MAY indicate that your kernel will not boot!
but it can also be triggered by needed modules being compiled into
the kernel.
[...]

These seems to be the consequence of the last bugfix.
Going to $MODULDIR/block/drivers and issuing
laptop:/lib/modules/2.6.10-nb/kernel/drivers/block# ls -l loop*
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 20597 Mar 29 20:25 loop.ko-orig

so after a clean kernel image install I have no loop.ko.
(Until now I haven't installed the depending loop-aes-modul)
When is this diversion thing issued ?
When I install loop-aes or the korresponding kernel-image ?


I don't know if this bug would be better directed to initrd-tools ...

If you have further questions, no problem :)

Greetings
Thomas Braun
