Package: modutils
Version: 2.4.19-3
Severity: wishlist
'depmod' complains if there is any non-ELF file under
/lib/modules/<version>. However, syscalltrack-modules-<version> puts
a file syscalls.dat in there. This causes problems in (e.g.) the
postinst of kernel-image:
-----------
/lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/sct$ head syscalls.dat
# definition of include files.
include: <linux/types.h>
include: <linux/time.h>
include: <linux/times.h>
include: <linux/socket.h>
include: <linux/in.h>
include: <linux/utime.h>
include: <linux/utsname.h>
include: <linux/stat.h>
include: <linux/resource.h>
/lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/sct$ sudo depmod -a -F /boot/System.map-2.4.18 2.4.18
depmod: /lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/sct/syscalls.dat is not an ELF file
------------
As a workaround, you can temporarily move syscalls.dat out of the way:
------------
/lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/sct$ sudo mv syscalls.dat /tmp
/lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/sct$ sudo depmod -a -F /boot/System.map-2.4.18 2.4.18
/lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/sct$ sudo mv /tmp/syscalls.dat .
------------
Can depmod please be not quite so picky?
Thanks,
Dylan Thurston

This package has been removed from Debian unstable. I'm therefore
closing this bug report. The package has been removed because it
has been replaced by module-init-tools. modutils was for 2.4 kernels
only. It's quite unlikely that your bug still exists in
module-init-tools, but please let me know if it does.
