Public bug reported: Binary package hint: dkms
Hello, I try to provide a driver I wrote (details here: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=143025) by using dkms to install it whatever kernel is used. I try to use the command "sudo dkms mkdeb --source-only -m nvidia_bl -v 0.51" but I have this output: ">sudo dkms mkdeb --source-only -m nvidia_bl -v 0.51 Using /etc/dkms/template-dkms-mkdeb copying template... modifying debian/changelog... modifying debian/compat... modifying debian/control... modifying debian/copyright... modifying debian/dirs... modifying debian/postinst... modifying debian/prerm... modifying debian/README.Debian... modifying debian/rules... copying legacy postinstall template...

If I try to install the deb file, it gives : ">sudo dpkg -i nvidia-bl-dkms_0.51_all.deb Sélection du paquet nvidia-bl-dkms précédemment désélectionné. (Lecture de la base de données... 166233 fichiers et répertoires déjà installés.) Dépaquetage de nvidia-bl-dkms (à partir de nvidia-bl-dkms_0.51_all.deb) ... Paramétrage de nvidia-bl-dkms (0.51) ...

This package appears to be a binaries-only package you will not be able to build against kernel 2.6.31-16-generic since the package source was not provided" The source are indeed here, in "/usr/src/nvidia_bl-0.51" but are not built. If I do a simple "sudo dkms mkdeb --source-only -m nvidia_bl -v 0.51", the binary is installed but the sources are not build for the other kernel version. I think that something is not triggered in post installation scripts. Any suggestions ? Best regards.
