With all due respect to Alan, removing the blcr-dkms package from the build is *not* a fix for the reported problem "blcr: Does not build/work with Linux 2.6.39 or later".
With the removal of the kernel module, the user space utilities in the blcr-util package still all fail with recent kernels, since they require the kernel module to function: <code> $ cr_checkpoint 0 Checkpoint failed: support missing from kernel </code> As announced in November on the BLCR mailing list [ https://hpcrdm.lbl.gov/pipermail/checkpoint/2012-November/000526.html], I am working toward of goal of BLCR support for all current Linux kernel versions by the end of this year. In fact, I am expecting a Beta release of blcr-0.8.5 later this week, for testing. -Paul -- Paul H.
