Looks just fine here w/ media-sound/alsa-utils-1.0.15_rc1

<snip>
    if [ "$distribution" = "gentoo" ]; then
      xecho "Running modules-update..."
      modules-update
</snip>

Jakub, could you just run `modules-update`?

Comment 4 Jack Kelly 2007-09-21 16:12:25 UTC

Yes, modules-update still exists, however:

/sbin/modules-update from sys-apps/module-init-tools version 3.2.2-r3 on ~x86 line 32:

[[ ${argv0} == "modules-update" ]] && ewarn "Please run 'update-modules' from now on; 'modules-update' is going away"

Reopening. If I shouldn't be reopening bugs, someone let me know.

(In reply to comment #3)
The whole confusion here comes from the fact that the patch is messing with irrelevant debian stuff.

Plus get this upstream, please.

Comment 7 Jack Kelly 2007-09-21 16:36:03 UTC

Reported upstream.

Fixed w/ 1.0.14-r2. Thanks Jack.

Comment 9 Jack Kelly 2007-10-04 15:39:42 UTC

media-sound/alsa-utils-1.0.15_rc1 should probably be patched too, as it also shows this problem and there's no signs of life on the upstream bug.

Comment 10 Helmut Auer 2007-11-12 20:00:49 UTC

Sorry for hijacking, but the correct place for the alsa config file should be  /etc/modprobe.d/alsa for 2.6 kernels, not /etc/modules.d/alsa.

This was fixed by Christian Heim for 1.0.14; unfortunately for some reason the patch wasn't applied in 1.0.15 ebuilds. To confirm, 1.0.16 applies it:
epatch "${FILESDIR}/${PN}-1.0.14-alsaconf-modules-update.patch"

Apologies for the inconvenience.
