Re: Security ERRATA Important: kernel on SL7.x x86_64 (and possibly unrelated update packages)

When I try to run "yum update" now, I get the following dependency errors (below). I suspect some packages unrelated to the kernel update were released from "fastbugs" prematurely, without their dependencies coming along for the ride... Gilbert Resolving Dependencies -->

I wasn't sure if you could safely mix code compiled with and without the retpoline extensions into the same kernel, which is why I thought the Makefile threw an error. But if it's safe to do, I may give this a shot next week if the gcc update doesn't come as expected, or if for some reason it

Re: Security ERRATA Important: kernel on SL7.x x86_64

I realize this problem was likely introduced by upsteam updates, but I thought I'd point it out here anyway so you're aware of it. An unintended consequence of this latest kernel update is that it breaks recompilation of third-party kernel modules. The new kernel was built with
