Description of problem: /sbin/weak-updates expects /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/extra to have *.ko files, triggering an error with /usr/bin/nm Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): module-init-tools-3.3-0.pre3.1.37.el5 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: echo /path/to/kernel/module.ko | /sbin/weak-updates --add-module Actual results: nm: 'a.out': No such file Expected results: No error from nm, which assumes a.out when no argument is supplied. Additional info: If /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/extra is empty, /sbin/weak-modules still runs nm on nothing, triggering the 'a.out' : No such file error. 222 # Symbols that other add-on modules of the "old" kernel export 223 # (and that this module may require) 224 if [ ! -e "$tmpdir/extra-symvers-$module_krel" ]; then 225 if [ -e /lib/modules/$module_krel/extra ]; then 226 find /lib/modules/$module_krel/extra -name '*.ko' \ 227 | xargs nm \ 228 | sed -nre 's:^[0]*([0-9a-f]{8}) A __crc_(.*):0x\1 \2:p' 229 fi > $tmpdir/extra-symvers-$module_krel 230 fi
