Subject: e2fsprogs builds and installs obsolete version of blkid
Date: Tue, 5 Apr 2022 23:15:22 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4EF2E5CC-E4E7-4463-893C-274EA9535EC1@amazon.com> (raw)
The e2fsprogs contains a version 1.0.0 of `blkid`. This version does not support flags that the current kernel install scripts pass to `blkid`. By building and installing e2fsprogs I ended up replacing blkid 2.30.2 with 1.0.0, which broke kernel packaging. This is easily fixed by doing `yum reinstall util-linux`, which reinstalls the correct version blkid.
This mess could be avoided if e2fsprogs either included a more modern version of blkid, or perhaps did not include blkid at all, since a more current version of this utility is maintained and installed through other packages.
(Finding https://forums.centos.org/viewtopic.php?t=69655 helped a lot in figuring out why my kernel build started failing all of a sudden)
