Grepping that repo shows that it probably was a copy of doc/depmod.conf.sgml that had phrase "The format of <filename>depmod.conf</filename> and files under <filename>depmod.d</filename> is simple" So, whoever copied it over forgot to remove the "and". Not that any of this matter... your version or the other are perfectly fine today :) applied, thanks Lucas De Marchi

I called myself proofing all of that as I copied it, and I made quite a few changes along the way, but oh well. Thanks Daniel and Lucas :-) -RW
