[save :)] Safe to remove? - modconf & module-init-tools
Posted: Mon Dec 21, 2015 3:04 pm
Potential noob question. It's been a good few weeks since I logged into my Sid VM, so maybe (highly likely) I missed something. Apologies if this is the wrong thread for this, but it seemed fitting since it's d-u related.
Did a d-u yesterday and nothing exploded. Seems I somehow passed the perl transition without noticing. Today however, apt wants to do this;
From what I understand, module-init-tools is a dummy package intended to be removed after the transition to kmod is complete. As for modconf, no idea how it even got in there. I thought it was deprecated a long time ago.
So anyway, just double checking. Safe to remove em both?

Code: Select all
The following packages will be REMOVED:
modconf module-init-tools
The following packages will be upgraded:
kmod libkmod2
