Public bug reported: Binary package hint: openafs-modules-source
trying to build a binary module from openafs-modules-source 1.4.4-dfsg1-5 for linux-image-2.6.22-9-rt 2.5.22-9.20 (linux- headers-2.6.2-9-rt 2.6.22.9-20, actually) with sudo module-assistant -t -l 2.6.22-9-rt build openafs-modules-source fails with ... LD [M] /usr/src/modules/openafs/src/libafs/MODLOAD-2.6.22-9-rt-MP/openafs.o Building modules, stage 2. MODPOST 1 modules FATAL: modpost: GPL-incompatible module openafs.ko uses GPL-only symbol '__rcu_read_unlock' OpenAFS is distributed under the IBM Public License 1.0, which is incompatible with GPLv2, and I assume that the -rt kernel relies on GPL- only code, but an end-user should be allowed to build the module himself, since the GPL doesn't cover the derivative work unless it's redistributed (right?). Building the same source module for linux-image-2.6.22-9-generic , of course, works. ** Affects: openafs (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- OpenAFK kernel module won't build with linux-rt kernel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/129480 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
