OpenHPC Leap 15.3 Problem: 'kmod = 25-6.7.1' needed by the to be installed kmod-compat-25-6.7.1.x86_64

[windsleigh]

There is an issue when running

[sms]# wwmkchroot -v opensuse-15.3 $CHROOT # create base image

---

Problem: nothing provides 'kmod-compat-25-6.7.1.x84_64' needed by the to be installed kmod-compat-25-6.7.1.x84_64
Solution 1: do not install kmod-compat-25-6.7.1.x84_64
Solution 2: break kmod-compat-25-6.7.1.x84_64 by ignoring some of its dependencies```

It happens when building the initial BOS image from the 2.x docs from OpenSUSE leap 15.3 Install guide(with Warewulf + Slurm)

We noticed this recently as well in our CI - appears to be related to changes in upstream Leap. We have applied a fix in the Warewulf wwmkchroot recipe that will be available in the next release. It's a pretty simple fix if you want to do it locally. Essentially, edit the following file:

/usr/lib/warewulf/wwmkchroot/opensuse-15.3.tmpl

and replace kmod-compat with suse-module-tools. See 40bdba3 for example.

Fix coming in 2.6 release.
