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.
