DKMS v2.0.17.4

[Matt Domsch]

I've posted DKMS v2.0.17.4.  Git shortlog is appended, but the big
changes include a couple fixes:
 * installs during --rpm_safe_upgrade could incorrectly fail
 * SLES10 driver disk creation was broken (and may still be)


and a few features:
 * Ubuntu packaging and mkdeb command (this has been accepted into Ubuntu Universe for Gutsy)
 * mkrpm now add automatic Provides: lines with modalias info.  This
 will eventually be used to automatically download drivers that match
 the hardware you have in your system.  Thanks to Michael Brown for
 his hard work on this feature.

Please give this a spin, and report any bugs, new or old.  I'm trying to
get this into the testing phases of Fedora and Ubuntu so they're
available with the next major release of each, but I'd like to know of
any showstopper bugs.

Changelog:

      dkms install --rpm_safe_upgrade implies --force

      Don't pass INITD to make install-redhat in dkms.spec
      Move debian/ into pkg/debian/ so it's not a native package.
      Move mkkerneldoth and find-provides to /usr/lib/dkms/, build non-native deb.
      set debian/compat = 5
      debian/control: b-d debhelper >= 5.0.42, add home page URL to description.

      s/-/_/ for debian .orig.tar.gz filename
      fix make deb
      more debian package cleanups
      only mkdir /usr/lib/dkms if we have something to put it in (RPM or Red Hat stuff)
      debian/postinst: check for /etc/kernel-img.conf before modifying
      more debian packaging cleanups
      remove empty pkg/ dir in 'make deb'
      add 'make sdeb', debian/watch, bump to 2.0.17.4.  Ubuntu packaging approved.

Michael E Brown (10):

      trailing whitespace removal
      initial forward-port of modalias patch to latest git.
      initial add for find-provides script
      rpm builds now with added dkms find-provides script
      modify script to take apart tarballs and search for kernel modules.
      use external find-provides script
      quiet grep
      quiet tar for non-tar files.
      remove dead code: we dont need to check for kernel builds here because this is only called by DKMS and wont be used to build kernels.
