Description Arjen de Korte 2018-01-18 18:42:50 UTC 
During the installation of xtables-addons-kmp-default, the following is logged:

Aanvullende rpm-uitvoer:
depmod: WARNING: //lib/modules/4.14.13-1-default/extra/xt_condition.ko needs

cat: write error: Broken pipe

After the installation, at least the xt_geoip extension can no longer be loaded (I don't use xt_condition, so I don't know about that one).

# modprobe --all xt_condition xt_geoip

Comment 2 Arjen de Korte 2018-01-27 21:59:45 UTC 
Could it be that the problem is in the toolchain, rather than xtables-addons-kmp? I noticed that over the course of a couple of days, with the same kernel and xtables-addons sources, the module(s) that fail(s) is/are different. Binutils?

Errors during installation

Problems persist after update to kernel 4.14.15 (different modules fail)

Should be a duplicate.

Comment 5 Arjen de Korte 2018-02-01 13:16:46 UTC 
The changes were accepted to Factory almost a week ago, yet this package is still failing to build correctly. Could this be a similar, but different bug?
Comment 6 Arjen de Korte 2018-03-01 22:24:17 UTC 
A month has passed and the problem still exists in the snapshot installed today. Is there anything I can provide in order to help fix this?
Comment 7 Arjen de Korte 2018-03-16 20:49:18 UTC 
Problem still exists. Reported again as bug 1085728 as this one seems to be ignored.
Comment 8 Arjen de Korte 2018-10-18 09:16:50 UTC 
This problem seems to be resolved. I can no longer reproduce this.
