There's been a packing problem.
Before, the modules package contained the module utilities.
Now, it's the modutils package.
What happened is that the modules/modutils maintainer prepared an empty 
transition modules package, but it got to the mirrors before the modutils 
package.
As of today, modutils isn't yet in bo. So revert to rex's modules package.
