** Description changed: This is an umbrella bug report for a DKMS problem that results in a failure to install/upgrade a linux kernel headers package. If you have DKMS modules installed, they are recompiled for every new kernel that is installed. Since you can have multiple kernels installed in parallel, a kernel upgrade is in fact an installation of a new kernel package. The rebuild of the DKMS modules is triggered by the installation of a new kernel headers package. If you have unsupported DKMS modules installed, that rebuild might fail, resulting in a kernel headers package installation failure which will trigger the automatic bug reporting tool (apport). The Ubuntu kernel team makes sure that all officially supported DKMS modules (the ones you can install from the Ubuntu archive) compile correctly for all supported Ubuntu kernels. This means that if you see DKMS build failures, it's most likely due to the fact, that you have unsupported DKMS modules installed. If you encounter a linux-headers package installation failure, you can check the log '/var/log/dpkg.log' for something like the following: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Building module: Cleaning build area...(bad exit status: 2) make -j12 KERNELRELEASE=6.5.0-35-generic TTM_NAME=amdttm SCHED_NAME=amd-sched -C /lib/modules/6.5.0-35-generic/build M=/var/lib/dkms/amdgpu/6.2.4-1683306.22.04/build...(bad exit status: 2) Error!
