[Bug 1693503] Re: Remove mlx4.conf

[Benjamin Drung]

So dpkg does not care if you have removed the config file. I prepared an
update kmod package that removes /etc/modprobe.d/mlx4.conf in my PPA.
Please update to the kmod version in my PPA and then you can install
rdma-core without conflicts:

Title:
  Remove mlx4.conf

Status in kmod package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hi,

  we are working on debianizing rdma-core package, it will contain a
  rdma service that manage the mlx4.conf file, so the conf file
  “/etc/modprobe.d/mlx4.conf” (that comes with “kmod” package) is not
  needed anymore, and must be removed.

  This conf file conflicts with “/lib/modprobe.d/libmlx4.conf” that will
  come with “rdma-core” package, and prevents running a script
  (/sbin/mlx4-setup.sh) that configures ConnectX-3 devices port types
  (IB vs. ETH).

  
  thanks
