Subject: What distro can run recent backports?
Date: Mon, 16 Jul 2018 10:49:04 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1ea772b3-612a-aa1e-8088-069864dc0920@candelatech.com> (raw)

Hello,

I'm trying to make backports work with my 4.16-ct kernel.  I tried Fedora-27, but it has
some bug relate to spatch so it cannot run there.

And just now I tried Ubuntu 18.  On it, spatch version is too old, and when I try to
compile coccinelle from git, it fails with an error like this:

File "parsing_c/includes.ml", line 159, characters 9-22:
Error: Unbound module Parmap

So, what does it actually take to run backports successfully?  What distro do you
guys use?  Anything work out of the box?

Thanks,
Ben
