Description Michal Jaegermann 2009-01-10 04:10:09 UTC 
Description of problem:

With the current rawhide updates there is /bin/loadkeys.static and /usr/bin/loadkeys.  OTOH /sbin/mkinitrd expects to find specifically /bin/loadkeys and is not that happy.  Good question is what else in a distro itself and outside. Expect more of assorted breakage.

What exactly two variants of loadkeys really buys you?  If there is a static version then why not to make /bin/loadkeys a link to it and be done with it?

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kbd-1.15-1.fc11

Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 2009-01-10 14:57:04 UTC 
Furthermore... why do you need a static version when it's only linked against libc?
