Description Anders Kaseorg 2011-02-18 20:59:29 UTC

Description of problem:

This commit added generated *.mod.c files to linux-2.6-v4l-dvb-update.patch:
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=kernel.git;a=commitdiff;h=a49e3abd

And they were still there when the patch was regenerated a week later:
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=kernel.git;a=commitdiff;h=1875248d

Leaving generated files in the kernel source tree can interfere with correct builds, depending on how the timestamps work out.  Please remove these files from the patch.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.6.35.10-78.fc14

Yeah, noticed that. Oops. Planning to do another refresh here at some point, will hopefully get it right the next time...

Comment 2 Jarod Wilson 2011-07-14 15:17:59 UTC

I believe this is no longer an issue with the latest Fedora kernels, given that they don't have those patches anymore.
