Description Andreas Thienemann 2008-11-26 10:00:31 UTC

Installing the latest kernel version 2.6.18-92.1.18.el5 I noticed a message in the %post output:

  Installing: kernel                       ####################### [ 8/19] 
xargs: nm: No such file or directory

Turns out, this message is caused by /sbin/weak-modules which calls "xargs nm".
nm is part of the binutils rpm and should be incuded as a "Requires: /usr/bin/nm"
