Package: ksymoops (2.4.11-1)

Linux kernel oops and error message decoder

The Linux kernel produces error messages that contain machine specific numbers which are meaningless for debugging. ksymoops reads machine specific files and the error log and converts the addresses to meaningful symbols and offsets.

This is a complete replacement for the version of ksymoops in the kernel. Older versions of ksymoops were in scripts/ksymoops.cc, more recently there was a version in the scripts/ksymoops directory.
