Hi all,
building ldetect on Cauldron is broken:

[/Q]
Apparently, modprobe.so no longer contains "read_toplevel_config" (which isn't
even in the header file) or "read_config" (which is in a patch to the header
file added on Mageia, but no longer defined in the sources themselves), and as
a result, building ldetect fails. Seems like we have introduced a non-blessed
API of modprobe.so.
This prevents upgrading kdiff3 and many other packages.
