To those asking for a workaround: The situation which triggers this crash is a corrupt or invalid module in /lib/modules. Naturally, depmod should not crash, even in this case, and that is the bug which is now believed to be fixed in Karmic.
In order to work around the problem, it's necessary to remove or replace the invalid module. I don't have a step-by-step recipe to hand for this at the moment, so if you don't know how to do this, just sit tight until someone posts one. If a workaround is available, it should be added to the bug description at the top so that it's immediately visible to everyone. -- - mdz -- [apport] depmod crashed with SIGSEGV in strcmp() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/99547 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
