| Subject: depmod: handle the case of /sbin/depmod without /sbin in PATH |
| |
| From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |
| |
| [ Upstream commit cedd1862be7e666be87ec824dabc6a2b05618f36 ] |
| |
| Commit 436e980e2ed5 ("kbuild: don't hardcode depmod path") stopped |
| hard-coding the path of depmod, but in the process caused trouble for |
| distributions that had that /sbin location, but didn't have it in the |
| PATH (generally because /sbin is limited to the super-user path). |
| |
| Work around it for now by just adding /sbin to the end of PATH in the |
| depmod.sh script. |
