[OpenAFS-devel] Do depmod for correct kernel version on kernel module post-install

[Mike Polek]

Not sure if this should go here, or to the -bugs list. Sorry if
it's the wrong one.

In the openafs.spec file for building the RPMs, it's set up to
do a "depmod -ae" when the kernel module is installed. However,
it assumes that the module being installed is for the running
kernel. We're doing automated installs where we install the new
kernel and the openafs kernel module RPMs at the same time, while
running under the old kernel. I believe the following patch to
the openafs.spec file will update the depmod.* files for the
install kernel vs. the running kernel when installing a new
kernel module RPM.

Thanks!!
Mike
