[Bug 618591] [NEW] Leaves modules.devname and modules.softdep behind in /lib/modules

[Loïc Minier]

Public bug reported:

Hi

While purging linux-image-2.6.35-13-generic, I got a warning that its
lib/modules dir wasn't empty:

dpkg : avertissement : lors de la suppression de linux-
image-2.6.35-13-generic, le répertoire
« /lib/modules/2.6.35-13-generic » n'était pas vide, donc il n'a pas été
supprimé.

bee# ls /lib/modules/2.6.35-13-generic
modules.devname  modules.softdep

Please also consider adding a check to avoid this class of issues in the
future, it happened at least 3 times in the past already.

Thanks,
