2016-10-05 Thread Andy Whitcroft
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.

@ 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.

@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.

[Bug 1629826] Re: fwts-efi-runtime-dkms should not depend on the kernel headers

2016-10-03 Thread Andy Whitcroft
@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.

apw: so removing all the linux-headers-lts-* is sufficient?
