[Bug 193606] Re: module-assistant fails to install open-vm-source
I think this bug has been fixed, but as far as I know, Intrepid's open- vm-source package is still busted because of bug #278711. -- module-assistant fails to install open-vm-source https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193606 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

As you can see from bug #217254, open-vm-tools has been removed from Hardy, no chance to fix this bug right now. ** Changed in: open-vm-tools (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix -- module-assistant fails to install open-vm-source https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193606 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

open-vm-tools have been removed from Hary. Can somebody explain why?

The patch by Hanno builds and works fine on my 64bit Ubuntu.

Debdiff looks good, Soren (or people from ubuntu-virt), could you please have a look at it? ** Changed in: open-vm-tools (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium -- module-assistant fails to install open-vm-source https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193606 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 193606] Re: module-assistant fails to install open-vm-source
I have investigated the problem further: The patch seems to be needed, when the modules have to be built for a kernel other than the currently running one. I believe there where two typos in the patch: It has to be "ifdef KVERREL" instead of "ifeq KVERREL" - module-assistant passes the kernel version as KVERREL in the same format as 'uname -r' would give for the running kernel. Also KEVERREL doesn't seem to exist. I have attached a debdiff that corrects these problems. I have verified that the modules build on a hardy test VM and that the KVERREL variable is used (instead of 'uname -r') I will upload an updated version to my PPA. ** Attachment added: "Debdiff modifying 03_kernel_makefile_fix.diff" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/12724681/open-vm-tools_2008.01.23-74039-0ubuntu2.debdiff -- module-assistant fails to install open-vm-source https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193606 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 193606] Re: module-assistant fails to install open-vm-source
I have attached a debdiff here, that removes the patch mentioned above. Now the modules build fine with module-assistant on my hardy (i386) test vm. Can somebody explain why this patch was included in the first place? Otherwise the package could be updated if there are no objections against it. It would be nice if somebody could test on a 64bit VM, too. Packages for testing will be availeable in my PPA.

I can confirm this behavior.

[Bug 193606] Re: module-assistant fails to install open-vm-source
The problem seems to be caused in 03_kernel_makefile_fix.diff applied by Ubuntu. The following procedure allows the modules to build: $ sudo module-assistant auto-install open-vm-source This build will fail. Select STOP and abort the installation. $ cd /usr/src/modules/open-vm $ wget -qO - http://patches.ubuntu.com/o/open-vm-tools/extracted/03_kernel_makefile_fix.diff | sudo patch --reverse -p3 $ sudo module-assistant --not-unpack auto-install open-vm-source This should build and install the modules for the current kernel. -- module-assistant fails to install open-vm-source https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193606 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
