Hmm, no problems here: # cp --preserve /etc/hostname /boot; echo $? 0 # rpm -q coreutils coreutils-8.21-11.fc19.x86_64 > *) How come the interface of kernel-install is not the same as what is > used by "make install" in the kernel? We need "verbs", because the same interface is used to remove things, and to provide a switch to reset the entire config. > With the below kernel patch make > install "just works". It's on our TODO list for long, but we haven't done it so far. > Was there a reason for the different interface, > or would you be open to adding compatibility with the kernel script? What would compat mean? A symlink to kernel-install from installkernel and checking argv[0]? > (I could of course just ship a shim script, but I'd rather not). We thought of letting the kernel Makefile look for kernel-install first and fall back to installkernel, but we haven't look into details so far.
