and subject line Bug#891936: fixed in zfs-linux 0.7.9-2
has caused the Debian Bug report #891936,
regarding zfs-dkms: 32/64-bit detection via /proc/kallsyms is a bad idea
to be marked as done.

This means that you claim that the problem has been dealt with.
If this is not the case it is now your responsibility to reopen the
Bug report if necessary, and/or fix the problem forthwith.

(NB: If you are a system administrator and have no idea what this
message is talking about, this may indicate a serious mail system
misconfiguration somewhere. Please contact ow...@bugs.debian.org

Package: zfs-dkms
Version: 0.7.6-1
Severity: normal

the zfs-dkms package tries to detect whether the (running) kernel is a
32-bit or 64-bit one with the following stanza (in zfs-dkms.config /
zfs-dkms.postinst):

$ head -1 /proc/kallsyms|awk '{print $1}'|wc -c

and checking the length of the resulting string.

if the check fails or reports a 32-bit kernel, the user is prompted via
debconf whether the build should be aborted.

both the check and the resulting actions is wrong and should likely be
dropped altogether:
- kallsyms recently got more restrictive and does not print address for
  all entries. the recent 4.15 kernel uploaded to sid has two lines
  starting with "          (null)" at the top, which breaks the check
- kallsyms might be disabled (in a custom kernel build)
- the running kernel is not necessarily the (only) one that dkms builds for
- ZFS supports 32-bit (although with a footnote about potential
  address space related stability problems)

if this check is still desired, it should probably be fixed and made
more smart and check the actual kernel sources that dkms will build
with.
