kernel-dummy is indeed a build service thing. It's how we ensure that all kernel flavors have the same version/release numbers.

If you're building your own flavor, you can ignore it.

Install kernel-source.src and rpmbuild -ba SPECS/kernel-source.spec - it requires kernel-dummy. End of story.

If I'm not in build service what do I do about it other than hacking kernel-source.spec not to check?

Use --nodeps or remove the dependency from the spec file.

Looking at the commits for kernel-source in December last year (on opensuse-commit), it definitely looks like most of this kernel package stuff is magically generated and then committed to CVS as the results. Where do I get hold of this magic?

It's currently only in the repository. But, as I mentioned in my other response, we're going to clean that up soon. - -Jeff - -- Jeff Mahoney SUSE Labs -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkllLdYACgkQLPWxlyuTD7JPRgCfbwgc4u5l16ul/paSn8aJjxXZ ajwAnRt/volPnySRDsiSsTz2lkD8f0k9 =ieWU -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+help@opensuse.org
