But is is really a "replacement"? I know that there is a provides
which makes the build happy, but unless you explicitly install the
kmod package into your image, you don't end up with all of the module
tools. The main missing piece is 'depmod' - the rest seem to come
from busybox, not kmod.
I ran into this when trying to run 'opkg upgrade' which sucked in
some new kernel modules and found that 'depmod' was not installed.
Did I miss something?
Nope, it was a good catch, I will investigate the size increase for
adding depmod into busybox.
Sau!
n.b. this was tested using Poky/Yocto
0fc8317c6385eb1ed69ca4522ee6424c456dbb92
which is a few days old. I've not checked the very latest master (yet).
