However during the removal process, it complained that the headers for kernel 4.10.0-20-generic cannot be found (which is the package I removed) with the following error message (The error messaged appeared twice): > Error! Your kernel headers for kernel 4.10.0-20-generic cannot be found. > Please install the linux-headers-4.10.0-20-generic package, > or use the --kernelsourcedir option to tell DKMS where it's located I do however think the removal process was successful.
