Source: dkms
Version: 2.2.0.3-1.2
Severity: normal
Usertags: obsolete-linux-image

Hello,

one (or more) binary package(s) generated by the dkms source package
still mentions the “linux-image” virtual package in Recommends or
Suggests. That virtual package is obsolete since the latest
linux-image-* packages no longer provide this virtual package.

See https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2013/09/msg00539.html for
the rationale and some details.

The presence of this virtual package in Recommends has the rather
annoying side effect that when you try to install the package with
APT, and that you have say wheezy and jessie repositories, APT will
install the wheezy kernel that still provides linux-image and this
even though you already have a jessie kernel installed...

Please get rid of those linux-image dependencies.

Cheers,

I believe this is fixed in 2.2.0.3-5, though not closed in the
changelog (duplicate of #724566)

Thanks,
Aron
