Package: ndiswrapper-utils
Severity: normal

The ndiswrapper-utils package depends on ndiswrapper-modules even
though the user might have compiled the kernel themselves and the
modules are not any use.

The ndiswrapper-modules package says:

Description: Ndiswrapper linux kernel module
 This package contains the ndiswrapper loadable kernel modules for the
 kernel-image-2.6.8-2-386 package.
 .
 If you compiled a custom kernel, you will most likely need to compile a
 custom version of this module as well. The ndiswrapper-source
 package has been provided for this purpose.


The modules are only needed by users that are not compiling the package
themselves.  Any users that need to use ndiswrapper-source will not need
to use ndiswrapper-modules and therefore ndiswrapper-utils should not be
installing it.

(The ndiswrapper-utils should not be changed to depend on
 ndiswrapper-source either since the user might be compiling a kernel
 without using any Debian source packages.)
