This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves
the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the
results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed'
to 'verification-done'.

If verification is not done by one week from today, this fix will be
dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Title:
  included kernel modules may miss dependencies (-virtual)

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “linux” source package in Raring:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  as found in bug 1164739, the kernel modules that get included into a binary kernel package may be missing dependencies.
  In that bug, someone added 'ceph.ko', but missed the dependency 'libceph.ko'.  The latter was not included, and as a result the former did not work.

  It doesn't seem like this should be a human maintained list without
  the aid of machine dependency resolution.

  Ie, depmod figures this stuff out, we should insert dependencies in
  automatically, or fail a kernel build on missing dependencies.
