Re: [arch-general] Is linux extramodules dir named most appropriately?

*What* directory removal logic???

pacman -Qo /usr/lib/modules/extramodules-4.14-ARCH/

Anyway, see how Red Hat uses "weak modules" in much the same way.

When linux is updated to 4.15 the old 4.14.13-1-ARCH modules directory will be removed and I assumed (possibly incorrectly) that the same is true for the extramodules-4.14 directory. I guessed, perhaps wrongly, that both of these were mediated by pacman hooks in /usr/share/libapm/hooks/xxx. Otherwise we'd have a slew of unused directories building up in /usr/lib/modules. In fact this did happen I believe a long time back. Thanks for explanations. gene
