Description Richard W.M. Jones 2011-06-06 16:27:18 UTC

Description of problem:

I don't know if this is intentional or not, but /lib/modules/3.0*/modules.dep
is missing after I upgraded to the latest kernel package in Rawhide.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

 kernel-3.0-0.rc1.git0.2.fc16.x86_64

How reproducible:

?

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Fedora 15
2. Update kernel to latest from Rawhide.
3.
  
Actual results:

modules.dep is not created by the %post scripts.

Expected results:

I guess it should exist.

Comment 1 Richard W.M. Jones 2011-06-06 16:53:12 UTC

This is the %posttrans script:

/sbin/new-kernel-pkg --package kernel --mkinitrd --dracut --depmod --update 3.0-0.rc1.git0.2.fc16.x86_64 || exit $?
/sbin/new-kernel-pkg --package kernel --rpmposttrans 3.0-0.rc1.git0.2.fc16.x86_64 || exit $?

Running this by hand produces hundreds of warnings like this:

WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.38.6-27.fc15.x86_64/kernel/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/powernow-k8.ko needs unknown symbol cpufreq_debug_printk
WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.38.6-27.fc15.x86_64/kernel/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/powernow-k8.ko needs unknown symbol mutex_lock

[...]

Notice that the warning is about the previously installed
kernel.  Not sure if that's a problem or not.

Comment 2 Richard W.M. Jones 2011-06-06 17:37:00 UTC

Sorry for the noise.  This is a bug in depmod in module-init-tools
which has already been fixed.  I fixed this by updating module-init-tools.
