I beg to differ here. Debian, package kmod 30+20221128-1: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 10 dic 2022 /sbin/modprobe -> /bin/kmod lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 10 dic 2022 /sbin/rmmod -> /bin/kmod lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 10 dic 2022 /sbin/modinfo -> /bin/kmod lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 10 dic 2022 /sbin/insmod -> /bin/kmod lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 10 dic 2022 /usr/bin/lsmod -> kmod Rocky Linux, package kmod-25-19.el8.x86_64: lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 11 18 apr 2022 /usr/sbin/modprobe -> ../bin/kmod lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 11 18 apr 2022 /usr/sbin/rmmod -> ../bin/kmod lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 11 18 apr 2022 /usr/sbin/modinfo -> ../bin/kmod lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 11 18 apr 2022 /usr/sbin/insmod -> ../bin/kmod lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 11 18 apr 2022 /usr/sbin/lsmod -> ../bin/kmod Why should just modprobe be retained?It is not accurate to state that "modprobe can do better" because it is not modprobe that actually does the work, it's kmod.
If modprobe must be retained because of it's historical significance, then I think that lsmod, modinfo and rmmod must be retained for the same reason.
Otherwise it's kmod that should be on the stage basking in the limelight. Alessandro
