[Bug 324365] Re: DKMS should rebuild modules as soon as new headers are available
Hm...okay. It looks like the problem was that the newest linux-headers package wasn't installed when my kernel was upgraded. This could be made much more user-friendly by, for instance, suggesting in the error that I don't need the kernel source but rather just the headers. Or by automatically installing the headers for me; afaict, there's no headers-equivalent to the linux-virtual package. That seems strange to me. -- DKMS should rebuild modules as soon as new headers are available https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/324365 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 324365] Re: DKMS should rebuild modules as soon as new headers are available
Something like this is happening to me. I run Ubuntu (the stripped-down VM version) in Virtualbox. I noticed this morning that my openafs and virtualbox modules weren't loading properly. It looks like I installed a kernel update on 2/6 (/var/log/dpkg.log attached). My guess is that dkms can't find the kernel headers. For instance, jle...@ubuntu-vm:~$ dkms build -m openafs -v 1.4.11 Error! Your kernel source for kernel 2.6.31-19-generic-pae cannot be found at /lib/modules/2.6.31-19-generic-pae/build or /lib/modules/2.6.31-19-generic-pae/source. You can use the --kernelsourcedir option to tell DKMS where it's located. This is despite the fact that I have the linux-virtual package installed... ** Attachment added: "var-log-dpkg.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/39032372/var-log-dpkg.txt -- DKMS should rebuild modules as soon as new headers are available https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/324365 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 324365] Re: DKMS should rebuild modules as soon as new headers are available
I've not seen any other reports of this (hence why it was so surprising). I'll close up the bug for now, but keep an eye on the behavior on your system. If it happens again, as soon as it does, reopen this bug and repost up snippets of the logs for what changed. ** Changed in: dkms (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- DKMS should rebuild modules as soon as new headers are available https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/324365 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 324365] Re: DKMS should rebuild modules as soon as new headers are available
As I said, this happened when I booted the 2.6.27-11 kernel. I can't say for sure now whether it happened the first time I booted it or not. The modules definitely seemed to be rebuilt during boot (the bootsplash stopped and I got the dkms output on the console). Has anyone else reported this? If not, perhaps the most sensible course of action would be for me to wait until it happens again (if it does). That way I will be able to observe exactly what happens, and you can tell me anything you would like me to look out for.

Re: [Bug 324365] Re: DKMS should rebuild modules as soon as new headers are available
I've looked over every case that is in your term.log's, and the modules were rebuilt as soon as the headers were available. When (Particularly) was the last time you remembered this behavior happening?

Re: [Bug 324365] Re: DKMS should rebuild modules as soon as new headers are available
You can mark this bug as private before you upload them if you have some personal information in either of the logs. I'm particularly looking for the order that select packages got installed to look for dependency problems, or postinstall problems.

Re: [Bug 324365] Re: DKMS should rebuild modules as soon as new headers are available
Can you provide the different logs that went with this situation then? /var/log/dpkg.log and /var/log/apt/term.log ? Perhaps there will be some insight as to exactly why the postinstall call to build with DKMS failed.
