Anyway, it seems not virtualbox specific issue, then I would ask module-assistant.

I'm sorry, but I don't understand what you're trying to say. Anyway, it seems not virtualbox specific issue, then I would ask module-assistant. I don't understand this either. TTBOMK virtualbox-ose is the only source package using kbuild.

It is included with kbuild package. After installing kbuild package, it succeeded to build module. This seems to be impossible. But without knowing the version number you're refering to I cannot say for sure. Anyway, all versions up to 3.0.10-dfsg-1 did depend on kbuild. Version 3.0.10-dfsg-1 does not but it also does not provide the tarball needed to compile with m-a. This is a known bug/feature request and already fixed in git. Sorry for lack of information, I used virtualbox-ose-source (3.0.10-dfsg-1). And now, it seems not depend to kbuild...

Therefore I just close this bug report, should you see some different facts, feel free to reopen and give us the needed details. So, how about reopen this? -- Regards, Hideki Yamane henrich @ debian.or.jp/iijmio-mail.jp http://wiki.debian.org/HidekiYamane -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
