sounds like maybe your modutils is not up to date.  From
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/Changes:

Current Minimal Requirements
============================

Upgrade to at *least* these software revisions before thinking you've
encountered a bug!  If you're unsure what version you're currently
running, the suggested command should tell you.

Again, keep in mind that this list assumes you are already
functionally running a Linux 2.2 kernel.  Also, not all tools are
necessary on all systems; obviously, if you don't have any PCMCIA (PC
Card) hardware, for example, you probably needn't concern yourself
with pcmcia-cs.

I installed Progeny a couple days ago, then tried to compile a new 2.4.x 
kernel into a deb package, and got error messages from depmod "unmet 
dependencies"  for all my modules I think.

Does anyone have any ideas of what package, if any, I'm missing to make a 
successful kernel compile?
