linux-2.1.18 breaks CONFIG_MODVERSIONS:
updating /usr/src/linux-2.1.18/include/linux/modversions.h
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.1.18-BSD/include -Wall
-Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strength-reduce -pipe
-m486 -malign-loops=2 -malign-jumps=2 -malign-functions=2 -DCPU=586
-DMODVERSIONS -DEXPORT_SYMTAB -c ksyms.c
In file included from /usr/src/linux-2.1.18/include/linux/module.h:15,
from ksyms.c:12:
/usr/src/linux-2.1.18/include/linux/modversions.h:7:
linux/modules/*.ver: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [ksyms.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory /usr/src/linux-2.1.18/kernel'
make[1]: *** [first_rule] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory /usr/src/linux-2.1.18/kernel'
make: *** [linuxsubdirs] Error 2
It seems that the *.ver files arenŽt created any more, maybe caused by
the new symbol-table handling for modules.
With a disabled CONFIG_MODVERSIONS there is no problem to compile
2.1.18.
PS: IŽam using gcc-2.7.2.1 and modules-2.1.13.
