Hi all :) kernel packages are still unfriendly to build-compare, causing us testers having to download unchanged,large binary packages on update for no reason There are two problems. 1. kernel-default.x86_64: W: file-contains-date-and-time /lib/modules/3.0.0-7-default/kernel/fs/ubifs/ubifs.ko Your file uses __DATE and __TIME__ this causes the package to rebuild when not needed It is just one remaining in the ubifs module. The second issue is somewhere in the pre/post, the nvr variable changes all the time --- /tmp/tmp.9i2CeizOnc 2011-08-04 20:37:46.965592003 +0000 +++ /tmp/tmp.BkE5Rahqtz 2011-08-04 20:37:47.005592003 +0000 @@ -81,7 +81,7 @@ if [ 1 = 1 ]; then /bin/bash -${-/e/} $wm2 --add-kernel 3.0.0-7-default else - nvr=kernel-default-base-3.0.0-7.1 + nvr=kernel-default-base-3.0.0-7.2 rpm -ql $nvr | /bin/bash -${-/e/} $wm2 --add-kernel-modules 3.0.0-7-default fi else Can the kernel version be determined at runtime instead of at compile time so we never get this issue anymore ? applies to KMPs as well.
