From 0767530346a06285e2c34b239976dae1d0d3d621 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michal Marek Date: Tue, 25 Sep 2012 16:03:03 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: Do not package /boot and /lib in make tar-pkg commit fe04ddf7c2910362f3817c8156e41cbd6c0ee35d upstream. There were reports of users destroying their Fedora installs by a kernel tarball that replaces the /lib -> /usr/lib symlink. Let's remove the toplevel directories from the tarball to prevent this from happening.
