[Bug 1629826] Re: fwts-efi-runtime-dkms should not depend on the kernel headers
We should not need them. If we do it is more likely an issue with image creation and that not including the headers when it should. We did a long time ago have cases where the installer was purging the headers incorrectly though those should now be long fixed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1629826 Title: fwts-efi-runtime-dkms should not depend on the kernel headers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fwts/+bug/1629826/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1629826] Re: fwts-efi-runtime-dkms should not depend on the kernel headers
@ Colin, I recalled it seems we got the irrelevant headers installed, so we specified the header dependency. Removed all header dependencies seems a good solution. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1629826 Title: fwts-efi-runtime-dkms should not depend on the kernel headers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fwts/+bug/1629826/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Ivan, any idea why we needed the explicit headers included anyhow, bug 1606480 introduced these, but I have no data to show what the root issue was. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1629826 Title: fwts-efi-runtime-dkms should not depend on the kernel headers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fwts/+bug/1629826/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1629826] Re: fwts-efi-runtime-dkms should not depend on the kernel headers
@colin -- DKMS package should not depend on kernel headers of any kind. There is no way depending on them can: 1) be written so it triggers the right package to be installed for your kernel (it will always install linux-header-generic which is wrong if you are on an lts-backport), 2) guarentee to install the correct version of those headers even if (1) was false (it will install the latest kernel headers not the one for the booted kernel), and 3) we go to great lengths in the installer to install the correct headers for the kernel you are actually using (to avoid this issue). In short it is Ubuntu policy that dkms package do not depend on the headers, and may assume the correct ones are installed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1629826 Title: fwts-efi-runtime-dkms should not depend on the kernel headers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fwts/+bug/1629826/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
