hi, currently all new kmods which use the weak-updates can be patched as:

@@ -1,7 +1,6 @@ -Source10: kmodtool Source11: find-requires Source12: find-requires.ksyms -%define kmodtool bash %{SOURCE10}

+%define kmodtool bash /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/kmodtool

and add: BuildRequires: redhat-rpm-config in this way don't need to add the kmodtool to all srpms and would be cleaner.

ps. just my 2c.

How do you add Requires for the kmod-<package> if you don't have them in a custom kmodtool script?

I seem to remember when I added Requires to the SPEC file for the kmod's I tried to build they were ignored. Is there a more convenient/correct way to pass Requires from a SPEC file to the kmodtool script?

imho these two scripts are identical:-)
