Hi, I just tried zypper in kernel-pa* kernel-s* in order to obtain the latest kernel-pae and kernel-source and syms packages from factory and zypper wanted to install kernel-source-rt and kernel-syms-rt. What is the effect, are these preconfigured real time kernel source and sym packages
Yes.
and would make cloneconfig simply turn them into normal sources?
No, they would be installed on your machine.
I don't think that was the question. Dave, the -rt packages are "special." All other kernel flavors use a unified source tree, where changes between them are just configuration differences. The differences are handled in the /usr/src/linux-obj hierarchy. The -RT has changes that are large, pervasive, and fundamentally different in places that require us to ship a completely different source tree. It's not just a configuration difference. A "make cloneconfig" might complete successfully, but I doubt it. Even if it did, you'd end up with a result very different from the configuration you cloned. - -Jeff - -- Jeff Mahoney SUSE Labs -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkka2XwACgkQLPWxlyuTD7J+ZwCfV21owrCEsoeGBGW4/FxLstxp 1c4AniPDFcFdGOipNdn7FDmrl7RShbpO =zItU -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+help@opensuse.org
