[PATCH] scripts/ver_linux

From: Christian Kujau
Date: Fri Aug 14 2009 - 01:57:40 EST


Hi there,

sometimes I'm using scripts/ver_linux to quickly have an overview of my
(build-)environment. The output is usually a bit off, since I don't have
"kbd" or "console-tools" installed and don't have /sbin:/usr/sbin in my
PATH. The patch below makes scripts/ver_linux print a better result,
compared to its original output:

-module-init-tools found
+module-init-tools 3.4
+e2fsprogs 1.41.3
+jfsutils 1.1.12
+reiserfsprogs 3.6.19
+reiser4progs 1.0.6
+xfsprogs 2.9.8
Linux C Library 2.7
Procps 3.2.7
-Kbd loadkeys:
+Net-tools 1.60
Sh-utils 6.10
