Module-Init-Tools-3.11.1 bogus man page

Description

when I was rebuilding the man page index, I got an error on modprobe.d.5 and when I looked it at it was composed of one line. I cheated and built the man page using docbook-to-man on the host machine. Not sure if anybody else is getting this error.

The problem is that modprobe.d.5 doesn't specify the appropriate "man?" subdirectory - it needs to be .so man5/modprobe.conf.5. This has already been reported upstream, but until it's fixed in a new module-init-tools release we can just do something like:

sed -i 's@modprobe@man5/&@' modprobe.d.5

or, since the whole file is just one line:

echo '.so man5/modprobe.conf.5' > modprobe.d.5
