I found, that the latest Tumbleweek Kmod patch usr-lib-modules.patch breaks Vanilla kernel RPM building.

I use "make binrpm-pkg". This breaks the "depmod_hack_needed" hack in scripts/depmod.sh. See this example build of Linux-6.1.36:

There are probably multiple possible solutions or hacks. The new "depmod" uses "/usr" as a static prefix for kernel modules. This can't be disabled via command line options. I compiled kmod with usr-lib-modules.patch disabled and use "depmod" from the modified package temporary for "make binrpm-pkg". This works.

Are there better solutions available?

None yet, see https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1212835 Thanks Michal
