The new module-init-tools 3.8 package changes the location of the configuration file: /etc/modprobe.conf is no longer read, instead /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf is used. Files without a .conf suffix in /etc/modprobe.d are ignored now.
I think that they are not ignored this release, but a warning gets printed about them every time a module gets loaded. So how about: Warnings are now printed about files without a .conf suffix in /etc/modprobe.d as these will no longer work with the next release. This will generate a lot of output on bootup if .pacsave files are left in this folder.
Please adjust your local configuration files after the update. --------------------
I'd like to move module-init-tools, filesystem, udev, mkinitcpio and klibc* and v86d ASAP.
