Package: module-assistant (0.11.10)

[ Source: module-assistant  ]

tool to make module package creation easier

The module-assistant tool (also known as m-a) helps users and maintainers with managing external Linux kernel modules packaged for Debian. It can do:

 * automated preparation of build environment for module compilation
   (e.g. automatic detection and installation of required kernel
   source/headers);
 * automated module source downloads;
 * configuration and tracking of external and locally built modules
   packages;
 * semi-automated multiple builds for multiple kernel versions;

It also contains some infrastructure to be used by the build-scripts in the accompanying modules-source packages in Debian.
