<p class="MsoNormal">Hi everyone,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I just updated my system (openSUSE 15.4, etherlab from the open build service) and noted that the new ethercat-kmp-rt package links against the kernel-rt-5.3.18 from the main repository. When I set up my system, they
linked against kernel-rt from the sle repository, which is a much higher version (currently 5.14.21).
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Switching back to the 5.3.18 kernel is difficult (maybe impossible? I didn’t try so far) as it conflicts with the current util-linux package. Leaving the system as it is is not possible, as the new ethercat package is
now incompatible with the outdated ethercat kernel module for my 5.14.21 kernel.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Does anybody have a solution which does not include installing a new system or compiling everything by hand? Was this change in the kernel links intentional? From a system admin perspective this is quite annoying, as
an update will now brake any previous system. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
