Bug#948257: depmod: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod.c:515 lookup_builtin_file() could not open builtin file '/var/tmp/mkinitramfs_XXXXXXX/lib/modules/5.4.0-1-amd64/modules.builtin.bin'
same error repeating again and again during both plain upgrade and
dist-upgrade on sid, so much that it clears all the previous scrollback
in the terminal (just one line would be fine)
i found this suggestion that says to edit a line in
"/usr/sbin/mkinitramfs" file, like this:
https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/initramfs-tools/merge_requests/23/diffs
the above edit does the job of getting rid of the console error spam.
someone has to incorporate this edit in an "initramfs-tools-core"
update. the file that needs the above edit belongs to
"initramfs-tools-core". it's neither "kmod" nor "initramfs-tools" (maybe
updating kmod triggers the bug, but the bug itself is in
"initramfs-tools-core")
this is the list of files of "initramfs-tools-core", and you will see
the affected file is in there (this serial redirect is because it's from
another remote system) :
root@sid:~# cat //var/lib/dpkg/info/initramfs-tools-core.list >//dev/ttyS0
