[lustre-discuss] Building 2.15 on rhel8 fails

[Thomas Roth]

Hi all,

I tried to install 'lustre-ldiskfs-dkms' on a rhel8.5 system, running kernel
Fails, /var/lib/dkms/lustre-ldiskfs/2.15.0/build/make.log says "No targets specified and no makefile 
found", and in the corresponding '/var/lib/dkms/lustre-ldiskfs/2.15.0/buildconfig.log' indeed the 
first real error seems to be

 > scripts/Makefile.build:45: 
/var/lib/dkms/lustre-ldiskfs/2.15.0/build/build//var/lib/dkms/lustre-ldiskfs/2.15.0/build/build/Makefile: 
No such file or directory
 > make[1]: *** No rule to make target 
'/var/lib/dkms/lustre-ldiskfs/2.15.0/build/build//var/lib/dkms/lustre-ldiskfs/2.15.0/build/build/Makefile'. 
  Stop.


This directory tree is a bit large :-)
 > '/var/lib/dkms/lustre-ldiskfs/2.15.0/build/build/Makefile'
does exist, though.

Where could this doubling of the path come from?


Btw, how to re-run dkms, in case I'd edit some stuff there?

Regards
Thomas
