In order to get things to work I basically followed the directions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed. However, it did not initially work. I am not sure exactly which of the below got things to work, but eventually it did. So here are the steps I went through:
Editted /etc/apt/sources.list to add: deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-proposed restricted main multiverse universe Created file /etc/apt/preferences.d/proposed-updates with this content: Package: * Pin: release a=trusty-proposed Pin-Priority: 400 In an xterm ran: sudo aptitude -t trusty-proposed And, there was nothing there. Then, I launched "Software & Updates" and it showed that the pre-released updates box was checked and exitted. Then, I restarted apititude, did an update and voila there were 90 packages. I browsed through them and found openafs-modules-dkms under the 'net' catagory of 'upgradable packages'. I picked this with a '+' and then installed with a 'g'. Everything worked fine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1423151 Title: openafs-modules-dkms 1.6.7-1: openafs kernel module failed to build To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openafs/+bug/1423151/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
