--- Comment #27 from Michal Marek
For some reason I don't see the issues when just updating nvidia-gfxG03-kmp-desktop package. I would have expected the same issue when looking at the %preun/%postun scripts.
Did you test with the kernel that the KMP was built against? In this case the module is installed below /lib/modules/.../extra or .../updates and this is handled by rpm. Admittedly, rpm is lot smarter than the weak-modules2 script.
Michal, could it be that wm2 removes the symlink although the kernel module still exists, but only does that if it belongs to a different package? This would explain the behaviour.
Yes. weak-modules2 --remove-kmp always removes all the symlinks, and then looks for the newest among other versions of the kmp to create new symlinks. I.e. package renames are not handled. I will change it to also consider packages that contain the same set modules, which should handle the nvidia case. It will not handle the case when you rename a KMP _and_ add or remove modules at the same time. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
