No, that's not really what I was saying, but that's irrelevant.

alsa-lib sounds perfectly viable to me. Both conf files are directly related
to alsa. We recently added a modprobe conf file to nfs-utils for an NFSv4
related issue.
Let's reassign this there, and I'll create a patch to install it in a proper
location.

I wasn't really hostile, more sarcastic, but there is a reason for that.
Previously we (Fedora/classic RedHat Linux) had a feature which could be easily
enabled (mind that other distros enable it by default, but let's forget about
that for a second) by editing dist-oss.conf.
Now what you are basically saying - "I don't know any OSS applications that I
care for, so users should google how to enable this feature (and master the
terminal, su, sudo, modprobe commands), ISP vendors (instead of pointing the
user to those files) now _each_ must supply files for /etc/modprobe.d/*
(probably causing file conflicts)".
If you don't feel like adding back those files which used to *belong* to
modprobe, I am interested in what other package can accept them.
Possible candidates are: kernel and alsa-lib (very very debatable). Hm. That
leaves us with the kernel and kmod. Sorry, with the kernel.
OK, reassign this bug to the kernel and let's see what kernel guys will say and
what their excuse not to bundle those files will be ('cause I'm quite sure they
will say - they don't belong to us).
As for applications which still use OSS, here's a very incomplete list:
SDL based applications
libao based applications
different old games based
XMMS
Not to count dozens of old applications which are not bundled by Fedora.

Yes, that line exists however it is installed as commented out. It does
nothing unless someone manually edits it. Do you have a package in Fedora that
requires it?

snd_pcm is still loaded in f17. snd-seq is still built and can still be
loaded. Do you have a package that requires it?

I can't comment on proprietary applications much. If they need OSS and
sequencer support, perhaps whomever is packaging them can include the modprobe
files.

I really wasn't gving an "attitude". I asked if you were having a problem and
you decided to become rather hostile. If there is something in Fedora broken
by not shipping those files, we can possibly move them to another package.
Kmod itself doesn't need to ship them.
