[Bug 569663] New: kernel update 2.6.31.8 breaks ndiswrapper compatability for x86 architecture
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=569663 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=569663#c0 Summary: kernel update 2.6.31.8 breaks ndiswrapper compatability for x86 architecture Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Final Platform: x86 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.2 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: kernel-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: danielm@ecoscentric.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/4.3; Linux) KHTML/4.3.1 (like Gecko) SUSE I applied security update for my kernel without thinking that temporarily I'm using the ndiswrapper for wireless connection (office relocation). Unfortunately prebuilt kernel modules (ndiswrapper-kmp-desktop) are not available for this kernel from the repo, as the build appears to fail for non-x64 when looking through the OBS logs for the package from:- http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/driver:/wireless/11.2-update As murphy would dictate, I don't have the necessary ksym & development packages installed on this machine and I need the network to get them and resolve the various complaints, and around we go! I can shuffle a package or three via USB key, but trying to resolve dependencies this way is tedious. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. zypper up 2. #hit y without thinking 3. #doh! -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

# uname -a Linux mach 2.6.31.8-0.1-desktop #1 SMP PREEMPT 2009-12-15 23:55:40 +0100 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux # zypper in ndiswrapper Loading repository data... Reading installed packages... Resolving package dependencies...
The following NEW packages are going to be installed: kernel-default-base ndiswrapper ndiswrapper-kmp-default
As you may notice/infer, that dependency is wrong, as it installs /lib/modules/2.6.31.5-0.1-default/updates/ndiswrapper.ko from ndiswrapper-kmp-default even though I'm running the desktop kernel.
That looks like a solver bug (it should install ndiswrapper-kmp-desktop, that does not drag in further packages). Reassigning to libzypp maintainers (note that this is 11.2). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
