From: Jan Engelhardt Date: 2016-03-17 01:13:03.340741300 +0100 Skip these two steps from Makefile.am altogether. 1. If $INSTALL_MOD_PATH/lib/modules/uname_r is missing, no depmod files will be created at all (by depmod as invoked by the kernel's modules_install target). 2. Therefore, modinfo -b will error out because it cannot find $INSTALL_MOD_PATH/lib/modules/uname-r/modules.order. 3. lsmod fails because /proc and /sys are not mounted. --- Makefile.am | 2 -- 1 file changed, 2 deletions(-) Index: ipset-7.4/Makefile.am =================================================================== --- ipset-7.4.orig/Makefile.am +++ ipset-7.4/Makefile.am @@ -72,8 +72,6 @@ modules_install: if WITH_KMOD ${MAKE} -C $(KBUILD_OUTPUT) M=$$PWD/kernel/net \ KDIR=$$PWD/kernel modules_install - @modinfo -b ${INSTALL_MOD_PATH} ip_set_hash_ip | ${GREP} /extra/ >/dev/null || echo "$$DEPMOD_WARNING" - @lsmod | ${GREP} '^ip_set' >/dev/null && echo "$$MODULE_WARNING"; true else @echo Skipping kernel modules due to --with-kmod=no endif
