This is the way it is supposed to work at the moment. module-rebuild |
| 23 |
list is meant to give you a list of modules that module-rebuild rebuild |
| 24 |
will rebuild. It does not check if the modules are already built for the |
| 25 |
kernel. Of course checking for this would be a great new feature for |
| 26 |
which you can submit a request to bugs.gentoo.org |
