Title:
drbd8-utils not dependent on drbd8-source
Status in drbd8 package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
The current drbd8-utils package has a dependency on the drbd8-source
package. While I understand that the source package has been modified
to build a DKMS module for the kernel, and the dependency ensures that
a current (matching) kernel module is always built for the running
kernel, I do not believe that this step is necessary.
Since the drbd.ko module is built and included with the kernel by
default, the need to build a matching module is not necessary. When
the kernel is upgraded, the new module will automatically be included.
I did not dig too far into the packages, but I believe that the
existing drbd8-utils package is a binary package that is not rebuilt,
so having the source does not ensure the utils are a match to the
built kernel module anyway. Therefore, the dependency on drbd8-source
should be removed from the drbd8-utils package.
