While doing some experimental work with kernel packaging, I found a few places where a lack of error messages made it difficult to figure out what was going on. This cleans up the error messages to be a bit more useful. Laura Abbott (4): build: Properly check for Cython modprobe: Add appropriate error message when path is missing depmod: Fix message printing before log_setup_kmod_log depmod: Add error message for bad versionThanks very much for the patches. I commented on each of them individually. Could you send a v2 with the comments addressed? For the cython patch, I'm not sure. I don't want the cython dependency to be a one off since there are other things we ship prebuilt in packages like the man pages. Maybe just stop shipping prebuilt stuff in the distributed file like systemd did would be ok. Lennart, Kay, did you had any problems with distributions due to this?
No known problems I know of. We will not got back to pre-created content.. Kay
