** Description changed: Binary package hint: multipath-tools 95-kpartx.rules calls modprobe(8) with the invalid -Q argument. I'm guessing it wants -q, for quiet? -- # Always attempt to load dm-multipath. This way we can get rid of the # init script.

Impact: multipath fails because modprobe doesn't load the needed modules + 2. How bug addressed: the udev rule calling multipath is fixed to not use a wrong argument + 3. Patch: see comment #3 + 4. Test case: dont' have dm-multipath in /etc/modules. 95-kpartx.rules won't load it. + 5. Regression potential: none.
