Description Austin McKinley 2007-07-12 16:48:54 UTC
code listing 2.3 reads as follows:

# genkernel --kerneldir=/usr/src/linux-2.6.11-gentoo-r11 --menuconfig \
  --minkernpackage=/home/foo/kernel.tar.bz2 --modulespackage=modules.tar.bz2 \
  --no-install --module-prefix=/home/foo/modules_tmp all

shouldnt that be --modulespackage=/home/foo/modules.tar.bz2?

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Sebastian Pipping gentoo-dev 2011-05-31 17:23:43 UTC
Probably, especially with code like

  if [ -n "${MODULESPACKAGE}" ]
  then
    mkdir -p `dirname ${MODULESPACKAGE}`
  fi

in genkernel.

Fixed in CVS, closing.
