ZFS dependency package

[MrSuicideParrot]

Hi!
The dpkg package has as a dependency the zfs-dkms package. However, in Ubuntu, ZFS is also supported as a kernel module and you only need to install zfs-utils.
Is there any reason to have the dkms package as a dependency instead of this?

There is also the choice between DKMS and kABI versions of ZFS on RHEL based distros... The dependency forces the use of DKMS which is something you might want to avoid in a production environment.
