Description Peter Bowen 2002-08-10 20:02:21 UTC
Erik Henriks wrote a nice little utility that he included with BProc and Beoboot
which allows you to easily get the kernel version that a module was built
against.  It would seem to be a natural addition to the kernel-utils package.

To compile:
gcc -O2 -g -o kver kver.c -Wl,-Bstatic -lbfd -liberty -Wl,-Bdynamic

'modinfo' does this.
