Hi,
when building a kernel with O=$DIR, I noticed that "modules_install" now creates files under $DIR as root:
$ sudo make -C /usr/local/src/linux-2.6-git O=$HOME/trash/tmp/. modules_install [...]
When trying to build a new kernel, removing $DIR as a normal user does no longer work as everything under $HOME/trash/tmp/.tmp_depmod/ is now owned by root (because of the "sudo"). This did not occur before and may be a consequence of:
commit bfe5424a8b31624e7a476f959d552999f931e7c7 Author: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz> Date: Thu Jun 9 16:35:41 2011 +0200
kbuild: Hack for depmod not handling X.Y versions
Can this be changed somehow so that "make modules_install" does not write anything under $DIR, as before?
Thanks, Christian. -- BOFH excuse #274:
It was OK before you touched it.
