After updating some packages in my machine (using aptitude
), I got the following error:
Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 3.8.0-37-generic (x86_64)
Consult /var/lib/dkms/openafs/1.6.1/build/make.log for more information.
just after prompting
run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/header_postinst.d/dkms 3.8.0-37-generic /boot/vmlinuz-3.8.0-37-generic
I have consulted the log file. The first error I've noticed there was at line 458, and this was it:
/var/lib/dkms/openafs/1.6.1/build/src/afs/afs_osi.h:14:21: fatal error: h/param.h: No such file or directory
This error has caused the compilation to terminate and the script to exit with error code 2.
Other than that, update went ok. In addition, inside aptitude I don't see any leftovers of packages to be installed (it says "No packages are scheduled to be installed, removed, or upgraded"). So my question is this: should I worry? Did anything really went wrong with the update? If so: what should I do to fix it?
Edit: output of uname -srvmpio
:
Linux 3.8.0-36-generic #52~precise1-Ubuntu SMP Mon Feb 3 21:54:46 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
This is ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS.
Update
I thought that installing linux-generic
has solved the problem. It looked like that on the first place, but after more than a week, having linux-generic
still installed, I got the following error on system update, which is almost the same as the old one:
Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 3.8.0-38-generic (x86_64)
Consult /var/lib/dkms/openafs/1.6.1/build/make.log for more information.
Again, line 458 has showed this error:
/var/lib/dkms/openafs/1.6.1/build/src/afs/afs_osi.h:14:21: fatal error: h/param.h: No such file or directory
so I tend to believe the problem is somewhere else.
