# rpm -qf /sbin/is_depmod_necessary
gives:
initscripts-4.97-35mdk
Since /sbin/is_depmod_necessary is part of the initscripts package itself. I'm
not exactly sure why it would be complaining about one of it's own files
unless it went missing or something *shrug*.
Grab the latest initscripts package here and see if the dependency is resolved
after you install:
