Comment 1 Jarod Wilson 2007-09-27 18:44:18 UTC 
Not a kernel bug, but rather an illustration of why kmod packages suck. The
"missing" dependency is provided by an older kernel than the latest one in the
updates repo. What's needed is a newer kmod-sysprof. Reassigning to sysprof
component.
Comment 2 Gianluca Sforna 2007-09-27 22:25:01 UTC 
I submitted the proper update for sysprof-kmod so you should be able to update
it as soon as the package reaches the mirrors.

Sorry for the trouble

And it was just pushed to -updates
