OK that works. Is relation of *-source packages to
*-modules-$kernelversion hardcoded or is there a way to have
mol-modules-source as the kernel modules source package name and
mol-modules-$kernelversion as the name of the binary package containing
the kernel modules?

I would like to have this because mol-source as the package name for the
package containing only the source for the mol kernel modules is
misleading.

BTW: aurélien told me that he fixed the mailinglist configuration for
pkg-mol-devel.

Hi and thank you for taking care of MOL.

I tried to build de modules from de source package in incoming against my
local kernel. The modules build but the package can not be installed
because it tries to overwrite some /lib/modules/2.6.18/modules.* from my
kernel package.

Nevertheless, I installed the modules 'by hand' and launching Panther
(inside X, I have not tested with framebuffer) works fine, even the network
that I didn't managed to make work before.

Yes it is. Check spca5xx/defines.

Assistance would be appreciated.

I agree that the out of tree module building for MOL should be done in 
linux-modules-extra-2.6. This was the main reason why I did not
upload the modules as well. I could not figure out how to add a module
only for one particular arch. Is this possible at all with the current
framework?

Mol modules should only be built on powerpc. They are useless on other
architectures.

Since I'm lacking a PPC machine to build a test package, I can try to
help in case you or Gaudenz have problems to add it there since I
already did it to spca5xx modules.

Gaudenz,

Thanks for taking care of mol :).

Now, it would make sense to add the kernel modules to the out-of-tree package
Bastian Blank is working on. I wanted to do this myself, but clearly don't
have time for it. Would you take care of that ? 

Once the module sources are in that package, they will be rebuilt by the
kernel team with each abi bump, so it makes sense to have it there.

Friendly,

Sven Luther

I suggest the adding of it to linux-modules-extra-2.6
