[LU-11720] SRPM unnecessarily tied to kernel version

Duplicate — Mon, 1 Apr 2019 15:21:47 +0000

Source rpms (e.g. lustre-2.10.5-1.src.rpm) are tied to the kernel version they were originally built against by kmp-lustre.preamble.

# rpm -i lustre-2.10.5-1.src.rpm
# cd rpmbuild/SOURCE
# cat kmp-lustre.preamble
Obsoletes:      %{name}-modules < %{version}
Requires:       kernel < 3.10.0-863, kernel >= 3.10.0-862

This prevents the rpm from being rebuild via rpmbuild --rebuild lustre-2.10.5-1.src.rpm on other el releases (e.g. el7.4).

WORKAROUND

Install source rpm
Edit rpmbuild/SOURCE/kmp-lustre.preamble for correct kernel version
build from spec: rpm -bb rpmbuild/SPEC/lustre.spec
