Hi Lorenzo, in order to bisect the problem, would be nice if you could test version 1:0.1.9998svn2745+dfsg-1 and 1:0.1.9998svn2734+dfsg-1 in experimental
you can grab them from snapshots [1] if needed. thanks a lot, Gianfranco [1] http://snapshot.debian.org/package/kbuild/ Il Mercoledì 13 Maggio 2015 0:48, Lorenzo <lorenzo.r...@gmail.com> ha scritto: Package: kbuild Version: 1:0.1.9998svn2780+dfsg-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, when I try to build virtualbox kernel modules using # m-a build virtualbox-source the build fails with the following error: CC [M] /usr/src/modules/virtualbox/vboxdrv/r0drv/memobj-r0drv.o │ CC [M] /usr/src/modules/virtualbox/vboxdrv/r0drv/mpnotification-r0drv.o │ CC [M] │ /usr/src/modules/virtualbox/vboxdrv/r0drv/powernotification-r0drv.o │ ld: cannot open linker script file │ /usr/src/modules/virtualbox/vboxdrv/r0drv/.tmp_: No such file or directory │ kmk[3]: *** │ [/usr/src/modules/virtualbox/vboxdrv/r0drv/mpnotification-r0drv.o] Error 1 │ kmk[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... │ kmk[3]: Leaving directory `/home/ombra/Downloads/linux-van-4.0.1' │ kmk[3]: Entering directory `/home/ombra/Downloads/linux-van-4.0.1' │ kmk[3]: *** Exiting with status 2 │ kmk[2]: *** [/usr/src/modules/virtualbox/vboxdrv] Error 2 │ kmk[2]: Leaving directory `/home/ombra/Downloads/linux-van-4.0.1' kmk[1]: *** [_module_/usr/src/modules/virtualbox] Error 2 │ kmk[1]: Leaving directory `/home/ombra/Downloads/linux-van-4.0.1' │ kmk: *** [binary-modules] Error 2 │ /usr/share/modass/include/common-rules.make:56: recipe for target │ 'kdist_build' failed │ make: *** [kdist_build] Error 2 Note that this problem is related to kbuild and m-a but does not affect the dkms building system. I file this bug against kbuild because downgrading m-a itself or virtualbox-source package to a previuos version doesn't solve the problem, while downgrading kbuild to the stable version (1:0.1.9998svn2695+dfsg-2) allow me to build virtualbox modules.
