We don't care, sorry. It doesn't harm absolutely anything. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 104288 *** I would have to disagree with that assesment completely. Under normal conditions that may be true, however, the purpose of this is to check modules for unresolved externals during bootup, and if a user is installing external precompiled modules, this could alert the user of the incompatability. Also, it could warn the user of a potential module recompile that may be necessary. I have made a simple two line modification to /usr/share/genkernel/gen_compile.sh that simply copies System.map to the /lib/module/{KV} directory that resolves the issue. genkernel copies the System.map nonsense to /boot; don't see why you need more copies of this thing that's not used for anything. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 104288 *** |
