Public bug reported:

If a new kernel is installed, all installed DKMS modules are built for
that new kernel. There might be incompatible modules that won't compile
for the new kernel which results in a kernel header package installation
failure. That's bad and not really correct, the incompatible DKMS module
is the problem and not the new kernel.

In this case, DKMS module build failures should be ignored so that so
that the kernel installation completes.

** Affects: dkms (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Summary changed:

- kernel header installation fails for incompatible DKMS modules
+ Kernel header installation fails for incompatible DKMS modules
