Public bug reported:
When kernel header packages (linux*-headers) are installed/upgraded, all
installed DKMS modules are rebuilt. Currently, if any of that rebuild
fails, a bug if filed for the kernel header package which is incorrect.
There are two different scenarios, both of which are not kernel
problems:
1) An official DKMS package from the Ubuntu archive fails to build -> A
bug should be raised for that DKMS package.
2) An unsupported DKMS package fails to build -> No bug should be filed,
but ideally the user should be made aware of the situation.
An example invalid bug is bug 2067015.
