Since some time it's broken due to the DKMS triggered scripts looking for files: `/lib/modules/5.17.0-1029-oem/build/include/stddef.h` `/lib/modules/5.17.0-1029-oem/build/include/stdarg.h` while the files are present in `/lib/modules/5.17.0-1029-oem/build/include/linux/` directory The workaround is to create two symlinks: `sudo ln -s linux/stddef.h` `sudo ln -s linux/stdarg.h` ` but this causes manual action required after each kernel breaking the DKMS system.
