[Bug 567699] Re: Ensure that matching linux-headers-* is installed
This bug was fixed in the package jockey - 0.9.2-0ubuntu4
---
jockey (0.9.2-0ubuntu4) natty; urgency=low
[ Martin Pitt ]
* data/handlers/nvidia.py: Some cleanup:
- Drop obsolete add_modules=['glx'].
- Drop setting DefaultDepth=24, X.org does that by default now.
- Move version 96 specific code to NvidiaDriver96 class.
- Remove some dead code.
* Merge from trunk:
- XorgDriverHandler: Support None X.org driver to avoid changing the
Driver setting. This is appropriate for drivers which X.org conf
autodetects.
- Add new flag Handler.needs_kernel_headers and install kernel headers if
set.
* data/handlers/{nvidia,fglrx}.py: Stop setting the X.org driver and
alternate free driver. Natty's X.org now prefers the proprietary drivers
over the free ones when available (105_nvidia_fglrx_autodetect.patch).
This allows X.org to fall back to the free driver if the proprietary one
gets broken or out of sync. (LP: #522061)
* jockey/oslib.py: Set kernel header metapackage name from currently running
kernel flavour, and add a small test case that it is a valid package.
* data/handlers/{nvidia,fglrx}.py: Replace custom code to install kernel
headers with setting the needs_kernel_headers flag.
* data/handlers/broadcom_wl.py: Set needs_kernel_headers flag. (LP: #567699)
* jockey/oslib.py, install_packages(): python-apt recently changed
"architecture" field of a candidate Version; where it used to say "all"
it now has the platform name. So switch to
candidate.record['Architecture'] to check if a package is Arch: all. This
unbreaks installation of unsigned third-party PPD packages.
[ Alberto Milone ]
* data/handlers/fglrx.py:
- Re-enable fglrx.
- Replace tabs with whitespaces.
* data/handlers/nvidia.py:
- Replace tabs with whitespaces.

Martin: I think you misunderstand the problem. Even with the current version in bzr (lp:~ubuntu-core-dev/jockey/ubuntu r531), I get the following: $ aptitude search '^linux.*generic$~i' i linux-generic - Complete Generic Linux kernel i linux-image-2.6.38-7-generic- Linux kernel image for version 2.6.38 on x i linux-image-generic - Generic Linux kernel image $ jockey-gtk [install the nvidia driver] $ aptitude search '^linux.*generic$~i' i linux-generic - Complete Generic Linux kernel i linux-headers-2.6.38-7-generic - Linux kernel headers for version 2.6.38 on i linux-image-2.6.38-7-generic- Linux kernel image for version 2.6.38 on x i linux-image-generic - Generic Linux kernel image To solve this bug, the ‘linux-headers-generic’ metapackage needs to be installed, not just the ‘linux-headers-2.6.38-7-generic’ package. For why this is important, reread my comment above. ** Changed in: jockey (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Committed => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/567699 Title: Ensure that matching linux-headers-* is installed -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The nvidia and fglrx handlers already do that. So the main missing use case here is the broadcom wl driver.

[Bug 567699] Re: Ensure that matching linux-headers-* is installed
To explain the problem from bug 550905 (which was marked as a duplicate of this) more clearly: If the user has the linux-image-generic metapackage installed, apt upgrades will automatically get them the _most recent_ linux- image-2.6.35-NN-generic kernel package available. However, Jockey only installs the linux-headers-2.6.35-NN-generic package corresponding to the _current_ kernel package, as of when the driver was installed. The fix is for Jockey to install the linux-headers-generic metapackage if the linux-image-generic metapackage is installed (and so on for other kernel flavors). This will ensure that apt will pull in the most recent linux-headers-2.6.35-NN-generic along with the most recent linux- image-2.6.35-NN-generic. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/567699 Title: Ensure that matching linux-headers-* is installed -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
