Now that modprobe.d is searched under ${prefix}/lib, allow a complete
transition to files only under ${prefix} by adding a ${module_directory}
configuration. This specifies the directory where to search for kernel
modules and should match the location where the kernel/distro installs
them.
With this distributions that do not want to ship files in /lib can also
move kernel modules to /usr while others can keep them in /lib.

<para>
|
|
<filename>modules.dep.bin</filename> is a binary file generated by
|
|
<command>depmod</command> listing the dependencies for
|
|
every module in the directories under
|
|
<filename>@MODULE_DIRECTORY@/</filename><replaceable>version</replaceable>.
|
|
It is used by kmod tools such as <command>modprobe</command> and
|
|
libkmod.

</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Its text counterpart is located in the same directory with the name
|
|
<filename>modules.dep</filename>. The text version is maintained only
|
|
for easy of reading by humans and is in no way used by any kmod tool.
