Package: dkms
Version: 2.1.0.1-2
Severity: wishlist
virtualbox-ose-source now uses dkms. This makes it almost impossible to build
deb-packages for the kernel-modules for other hosts.
I know dkms provides a method to build such a deb-packages in principle but it
has several heavy shortcommings compared to the old method:
1) You must install dkms on the target machine. => you must also install gcc,
cpp, binutils, ... as dkms depends on gcc.
2) You must install the module sources on the target.
3) If you install a new self-build kernel it calls dkms_autoinstaller. Either
it fails (no kernel-source) or it starts to compile these modules as root.
Please provide a mechanism to build a debian package which doesn't depend
itself on dkms and which only includes the kernel-modules as binary.
Regards
