[Pkg-spca5xx-devel] Bug#383254: Version magic mismatch for spca5xx with 2.6.16-2

[John Livingston]

Package: spca5xx-modules-2.6.16-2-686
Version: 20060501-1

I encountered a version magic mismatch error when attempting to load spca5xx
with the Debian 2.6.16-2 kernel.  At first I attempted to use the prebuilt
module, spca5xx-modules-2.6.16-2-686:

# modprobe spca5xx
FATAL: Error inserting spca5xx
(/lib/modules/2.6.16-2-686/kernel/drivers/usb/media/spca5xx.ko): Invalid
module format

and after checking /var/log/messages:
spca5xx: version magic '2.6.16-2-686 686 gcc-4.1' should be '2.6.16-2-686686
gcc-4.0'

I manually built the module from spca5xx-source using:
MAKEFLAGS="CC=gcc-4.0" make-kpkg --revision 1 --append-to-version -2-686
modules

along with the appropriate kernel headers, and it works.  Looks like spca5xx
for 2.6.16 still needs to be built with gcc 4.0, at least until the next
kernel update comes out :D

Thanks.
