I tried to find and fix packages that install modprobe config files, but in case I missed some, the fix is simple: change /etc/modprobe.d/$name to /etc/modprobe.d/50-$name.conf.
Also, mkinitrd should be updated to not copy /etc/modprobe.conf* if it's not there.
Michal, the vmware KMPs install a /etc/modprobe.d/vmnics file. I will change this to the new file name with the next monthly sync with upstream. I was though wondering what importance / function the number 50 has. I assume it is sort of priorization? Can you elaborate on this please? Also $name: should this be in any way related to the package name? so far, the vmware-kmp installs a file called vmnics (as it mangles the loading of vmnics (virtual machine nics). Should that also be adjusted to reflect any given name?
