Two packages in Planet CCRMA, actually (alsa and midishare). Don't pay
attention to the naming scheme I'm using (dates back a long long time),
I'll switch to kernel-module-<name> eventually[*] as it seems to most
common. I'll keep using the "kernel version/release in name" after
kernel-module-<name> as it is (AFAIK) the only method that currently
works.

[*] this will also mean, I guess, that /etc/apt/apt.conf has to be more
specific in the Allow-Duplicated line, "^kernel-" would match all kernel
modules even though they should not be duplicated when including the
kernel version/release in the name
