** Description changed:

- TBD
+ This is an umbrella bug report for a DKMS problem that results in a
+ failure to install/upgrade a linux kernel headers package.
+ 
+ If you have DKMS modules installed, they are recompiled for every new
+ kernel that is installed. Since you can have multiple kernels installed
+ in parallel, a kernel upgrade is in fact an installation of a new kernel
+ package.
+ 
+ The rebuild of the DKMS modules is triggered by the installation of a
+ new kernel headers package. If you have unsupported DKMS modules
+ installed, that rebuild might fail, resulting in a kernel headers
+ package installation failure which will trigger the automatic bug
+ reporting tool (apport).
+ 
+ The Ubuntu kernel team makes sure that all officially supported DKMS
+ modules (the ones you can install from the Ubuntu archive) compile
+ correctly for all supported Ubuntu kernels. This means that if you see
+ DKMS build failures, it's most likely due to the fact, that you have
+ unsupported DKMS modules installed.
+ 
+ If you encounter a linux-headers package installation failure, you can
+ check the log '/var/log/dpkg.log' for something like the following:
+ 
+ Building module:
+ Cleaning build area...
+ make -j4 KERNELRELEASE=6.2.0-1003-lowlatency all 
INCLUDEDIR=/lib/modules/6.2.0-1003-lowlatency/build/include 
KVERSION=6.2.0-1003-lowlatency DKMS_BUILD=1...(bad exit status: 2)
+ ERROR (dkms apport): binary package for evdi: 1.12.0 not found
+ Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 6.2.0-1003-lowlatency 
(x86_64)
+ Consult /var/lib/dkms/evdi/1.12.0/build/make.log for more information.
+ Error! One or more modules failed to install during autoinstall.
+ Refer to previous errors for more information.
+    ...fail!
+ 
+ In this case, you need to remove the unsupported DKMS module:
+ 
+ $ dkms remove <name>/<version>
+ 
+ For the above case that would be:
+ 
+ $ dkms remove evdi/1.12.0
+ 
+ Final note, this is *not* a kernel problem.
