G'day All ,

I installed the sl-modem-daemon and sl-modem-source packages from
multiverse and attempted to build the modules using module-assistant .
All went well until the module-assistant tried to install the
sl-modem-modules-2.6.8.1-3-686_2.9.9-1_i386.deb package that it built . 

I get this dependency error :

Selecting previously deselected package sl-modem-modules-2.6.8.1-3-686.
(Reading database ... 79979 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking sl-modem-modules-2.6.8.1-3-686

however:

Errors were encountered while processing:
 sl-modem-modules-2.6.8.1-3-686

My question is : What do I change to make the module package depend on
Ubuntu's linux-image-2.6 ? 

As this package is from multiverse , I did not file a bug report and
realise that I am pretty much on my own here . 

Thanks
