It *should* be harmless, but I think it's also safe to say that it's not something anyone's likely intentionally testing. You could pull up only the necessary changes for Linux kernel portability, I think there were quite a few, but that's probably still easier than the solution that Steve recommended. Transplanting the whole kernel source tree will also require substantial changes to the Autoconf macros to probe for and set the new defines, at which point you're doing all the work that you had to do in order to cherry-pick the required changes anyway, but doing it in a fairly unstable way. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1206387 Title: openafs-modules-dkms 1.6.1-1+ubuntu0.2: module FTBFS on 3.8.0 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openafs/+bug/1206387/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
