*** Bug 614351 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This issue has been proposed when we are only considering blocker issues in the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. It has been denied for the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. ** If you would still like this issue considered for the current release, ask your support representative to file as a blocker on your behalf. Otherwise ask that it be considered for the next Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. ** Since RHEL 6.2 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as exception or blocker. Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Following steps can be done to by pass this error : run make menuconfig. 1) Select "Enable loadable module support", then "Module signature verification (EXPERIMENTAL)". Disable it. 2) Then go back to the main menu, select "Cryptographic API" then "In-kernel signature checker (EXPERIMENTAL)" and disable that one too. Then go back again, save your config and make your kernel. At least, it will pass this phase successfully. We don't support custom rebuilds. Changing signmodules to 0 constitutes a custom rebuild. Closing NOTABUG. I do not believe this "bug" is "NOTABUG" or limited to the specific circumstances described. I downloaded sources for workstation 2.6.32-431.3.1-el6 rpmbuild -bp /home/$USER/rpmbuild/SPECS/kernel.spec cd /home/$USER/rpmbuild/BUILD/kernel-2.6.32-71.29.1.el6/linux-2.6.32-71.29.1.el6.x86_64/ && make menuconfig [and exited with no changes] then: make rpm and got the exact same error. Thus it appears in default config/builds without changing anything, and not just a particular custom rebuild. Request that the bug be reopened and fixed. NOTE: The commands above aren't exactly right, but refer to the 431.3.1 kernel. Note that there is no "signmodules" even in kernel.spec, but the Asish workaround above works. Why doesn't the standard kernel build work? Only rpmbuild --rebuild or -bb using the srpm or spec we provide is supported. You're doing something different. Still NOTABUG. |
