Control: severity -1 serious Hi,
now that I know that BUILT_MODULE_NAME[0] and DEST_MODULE_LOCATION[0] break it, I found other packages via codesearch.d.n that use that syntax and I was wondering whether they break as well. The following packages fail to install in unstable right now: acpi-call-dkms adv-17v35x-dkms bbswitch-dkms dahdi-dkms ddcci-dkms digimend-dkms dpdk-kmods-dkms evdi-dkms falcosecurity-scap-dkms failed gost-crypto-dkms iptables-netflow-dkms jool-dkms langford-dkms librem-ec-acpi-dkms vpoll-dkms lime-forensics-dkms apfs-dkms lttng-modules-dkms nat-rtsp-dkms openafs-modules-dkms openrazer-driver-dkms openvpn-dco-dkms rapiddisk-dkms rtpengine-kernel-dkms tp-smapi-dkms v4l2loopback-dkms west-chamber-dkms xtables-addons-dkms xtrx-dkms But all of those succeed to install in testing. I also tried installing all of the above packages with dkms from unstable patched with my patch from my last email and then they succeed to install again, thus indicating that this is all the same problem class. Since this problem is making several dozen packages in the archive uninstallable, I'm raising the severity of this bug to serious. Apologies if I'm wrong but better safe then sorry, right? Maybe this prevents users of apt-listbugs from installing dkms from unstable and have their dkms modules fail. Please lower the severity if I raised it in error. Apologies in that case. I'd also like to suggest the following patch to be included into the dkms package which would've spotted this problem early on: --- dkms-3.0.12.orig/test/dkms_test-1.0/dkms.conf +++ dkms-3.0.12/test/dkms_test-1.0/dkms.conf @@ -1,7 +1,7 @@ PACKAGE_NAME="dkms_test" PACKAGE_VERSION="1.0" -BUILT_MODULE_NAME="dkms_test" +BUILT_MODULE_NAME[0]="dkms_test" AUTOINSTALL="yes" -DEST_MODULE_LOCATION="/kernel/extra" +DEST_MODULE_LOCATION[0]="/kernel/extra" Thanks! cheers, josch
