Package: makedumpfile Version: 1.5.0-1 Severity: important Tags: upstream Dear Maintainer, When used on Debian running kernel 3.5 and later the makedumpfile --dump-dmesg /proc/vmcore /tmp/dmesg fails with the following error :
# makedumpfile --dump-dmesg /proc/vmcore /tmp/dmesg dump_dmesg: Can't find some symbols for log_buf. makedumpfile Failed. This is caused by the change from byte-buffer structure to variable-length record buffer of the kernel log buffer introduced by this commit : http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=7ff9554bb578ba02166071d2d487b7fc7d860d62 -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages makedumpfile depends on: ii libbz2-1.0 1.0.6-4 ii libc6 2.13-37 ii libdw1 0.153-2 ii libelf1 0.152-1+wheezy1 ii perl 5.14.2-16 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.7.dfsg-13 Versions of packages makedumpfile recommends: ii crash 6.1.0-1 ii kexec-tools 1:2.0.3-1 makedumpfile suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
