Thanks, will handle this in a bit. (note that this is only an issue for modules doing `make install`, so e.g. nvidia-drivers which I already tested with 6.6 was not affected) The bug has been closed via the following commit(s): https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=017bff0a540eab67bd9657d4455f13a62dbcca28 commit 017bff0a540eab67bd9657d4455f13a62dbcca28 Author: Ionen Wolkens <ionen@gentoo.org> AuthorDate: 2023-11-01 08:07:13 +0000 Commit: Ionen Wolkens <ionen@gentoo.org> CommitDate: 2023-11-01 08:10:42 +0000 linux-mod-r1.eclass: fix DEPMOD override for kernel 6.6 Not necessary, but also change STRIP while at it for parity.

With kernel commit 4d15c9fa058e6, the "$DEPMOD" invocation at the end of kernel scripts/depmod.sh became an "exec", which broke the old strategy in linux-mod-r1.eclass whereby $DEPMOD was set to ":". (See also kernel commit 79b96c332241c.) I was able to recover correct functionality with this: --- /etc/portage/overlay/eclass/linux-mod-r1.eclass.dist 2023-06-06 17:04:46.189817830 -0500 +++ /etc/portage/overlay/eclass/linux-mod-r1.eclass 2023-10-31 15:06:55.556355747 -0500 @@ -1161,7 +1161,7 @@ _modules_set_makeargs() { # eclass handle strip, sign, compress, and depmod (CONFIG_ should # have no impact on building, only used by Makefile.modinst) CONFIG_MODULE_{SIG_ALL,COMPRESS_{GZIP,XZ,ZSTD}}= - DEPMOD=: + DEPMOD=/bin/true STRIP=: ) I discovered the problem while reinstalling net-firewall/xtables-addons.
