Hello,

As usual, here is the list update for sound-modules.  That said, as
discussed at debconf, perhaps now that we don't build oss drivers, we
could just ship all modules of kernel/sound? I have attached the script
I usually use to create the list, the idea was that it heuristically
excludes the oss (but it's not built any more), soc and synth modules,
which we don't need for d-i, core modules (since the drivers will
depend on whatever they actually need), and all modem/tuner/synth/dummy
modules. In the end, when I look at the figures:

€ du /lib/modules/4.2.0-trunk-amd64/kernel/sound -sh 
9,4M	/lib/modules/4.2.0-trunk-amd64/kernel/sound
€ du -sh /tmp/sound-modules-4.2.0-trunk-amd64-di/lib/modules/4.2.0-trunk-amd64/kernel/
7,9M	/tmp/sound-modules-4.2.0-trunk-amd64-di/lib/modules/4.2.0-trunk-amd64/kernel/

We gain 1.5M, which is mostly soc/:

€ du -sh /lib/modules/4.2.0-trunk-amd64/kernel/sound/soc 
1,1M	/lib/modules/4.2.0-trunk-amd64/kernel/sound/soc

which I had assumed would not be useful for installation with speech
synthesis, but maybe I'm actually wrong, and we should just as well ship
everything in sound/ and save the maintenance of the list?

Samuel
