Without this patch (in particular `--sysconfdir=/etc`) it'snot possible to pass module arguments to `kernel-module-loader` from <https://issues.guix.info/issue/40274>.As the core-updates branch is frozen right now, could you submit this patch as a 'kmod/next' variable? See e.g. 'help2man/latest' or 'automake-1.16.2' for inspiration.
I can do that but I would need to adjust %modprobe-wrapper for`kernel-loader-module` to work without the crutch at 8c88e24229 since the service
gets its modprobe from "/proc/sys/kernel/modprobe".
After the core-updates merge, we can do a larger 'staging' round that updates the default 'kmod'. I wonder if we should patch eudev to use /run/current-system/profile/bin/ instead of /gnu/store/...kmod/bin so that we can update kmod without triggering a huge rebuild.
eudev uses libkmod to to use it's kmod feature so I'm not sure how to do this.
