Hi, apport-collect is not present on this system and I could not install the "apport" package to which it belongs due to errors with systemd:
Processing triggers for systemd (219-7ubuntu6) ... Error getting authority: Error initializing authority: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.PolicyKit1: Timeout was reached (g-io-error-quark, 24) Failed to execute operation: Connection timed out dpkg: error processing package systemd (--unpack): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Processing triggers for ureadahead (0.100.0-19) ... Processing triggers for dbus (1.8.12-1ubuntu5) ... Errors were encountered while processing: systemd E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) Anyway, that is a different issue I bet. I am attaching the script I used to compile the kernel. In the next post I will also include the output of the compilation process, including the error. ** Attachment added: "compilekernels.sh" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1481723/+attachment/4439835/+files/compilekernels.sh -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1481723 Title: can not build kernel image from source package Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Hello, on Ubuntu 15.04 I am trying to build a kernel from its sourcepackage like this: export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get update && apt-get -y install kernel-package build-essential latest=linux-image-3.19.0-25-generic apt-get -y build-dep $latest && apt-get source $latest yes "" | make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=test kernel_image kernel_headers kernel_source After a while, the compilation process reports a missing header file: CC [M] ubuntu/vbox/vboxguest/VBoxGuest-linux.o In file included from <command-line>:0:0: ././include/linux/kconfig.h:46:1: fatal error: ./ubuntu/vbox/vboxguest/include/VBox/VBoxGuestMangling.h: No such file or directory #endif /* __LINUX_KCONFIG_H */ ^ compilation terminated. scripts/Makefile.build:257: recipe for target 'ubuntu/vbox/vboxguest/VBoxGuest-linux.o' failed make[4]: *** [ubuntu/vbox/vboxguest/VBoxGuest-linux.o] Error 1 scripts/Makefile.build:402: recipe for target 'ubuntu/vbox/vboxguest' failed make[3]: *** [ubuntu/vbox/vboxguest] Error 2 scripts/Makefile.build:402: recipe for target 'ubuntu/vbox' failed make[2]: *** [ubuntu/vbox] Error 2 Makefile:949: recipe for target 'ubuntu' failed make[1]: *** [ubuntu] Error 2 There is a VBoxGuestMangling.h somewhere else in the code-tree, and I've tried symlinking it, but then I just run into another compile-error later on. I was under the impression that Ubuntu used its own source packages to produce the kernel images, but now I am not so sure. kr, -- Steven To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1481723/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
