Package: ksymoops Version: 2.4.11-1 Severity: normal
Ksymoops wants /proc/ksyms which I don't have and does not like /proc/kallsyms which I do have. I did not find anything about this issue in the man page nor did I find any kernel option to turn on that proc file. Without it ksymoops is basically useless as it refuses to analyze modules and most kernel code is in modules. $ ksymoops -v linux-2.6.34-rc1/vmlinux ksymoops 2.4.11 on x86_64 2.6.34-rc1.
