Package: dkms
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
Hi,
When running dkms on one system I got the message:
"Module build for the currently running kernel was skipped since the
kernel source for this kernel does not seem to be installed."
I did in fact have the appropriate linux-source package installed;
what was missing was the linux-headers package which provides the
dir that this test checks for. The attached patch clarifies that
in the error message.
Cheers,
Thijs
