Yeah, but DKMS modules are something of a special case because the end user isn't building the package. They're just installing a DKMS-enabled package, and the building happens as part of the package installation. That means that the dependencies do need to be there for the compilation to work. DKMS itself doesn't depend on build-essential because building the average kernel module doesn't require userspace development headers, but OpenAFS is weird. This bug has been fixed for a while in Git, but along with other things that aren't suitable for the current deep freeze. (It is fixed in experimental, though, so I'll leave it marked closed but with the correct version information.) But there's an upstream security patch that I need to upload for squeeze anyway, so I'll fix this along with. I should be able to get to that in the next couple of days. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
