[SRU Justification]
DKMS is pulling in incorrect headers on some images/installs, plus this fix
backports the removal of the 'linux-image' dep that was pulling in linux-image
on various media, despite precise.2 wanting linux-image-lts-quantal.
- [Test Case]
+ This should be fixed by dropping the dkms dependency on headers, and
+ making linux-flavour depend on the correct headers, as it does in Q and
+ R.
+
+ [Test Case for DKMS]
Testcase is twofold:
1) verify that the binary packages no longer have deps on any linux-headers
or linux-image packages.
2) verify that the latest precise daily builds no longer incorrectly carry
3.2.0 kernels on x86
+
+ [Test case for linux-meta-*]
+ Make sure linux-$(flavour) now depends on linux-image-flavour *and*
linux-headers-flavour, rather than just linux-image.
[Regression potential]
Low, this dependency was pretty much always broken, and it was merely a fluke
that it was handled correctly elsewhere and mostly a non-issue on x86 installs.
[Original Report]
The PowerVR SGX kernel module package for Pandaboard depends on
linux-headers-omap4 (headers package for the Omap 4 based kernel) and DKMS, but
when installing the package DKMS will also pull linux-headers-generic, forcing
the module build to happen with both kernel headers package, besides wasting
quite a few extra megabytes.
