It isn't something Red Hat ever uses. Though you already have it fixed,  
for future reference, I believe it does more or less the same thing as  
depmod -a (regenerates modules.dep, the listing of modules and their  
dependencies).

My systems return absolutely nothing from that command... However,  
modinfo ivtv returns some useful input:

# modinfo ivtv
filename:     
/lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2174.nptl_37.rhfc1.at/updates/drivers/media/
