As I wrote that time, my experience was that the problem disappeared in the mentioned snapshot. So it did in the regular 14.04 release. So I think that the problem is solved. Though, the reason why it is solved seems unclear. But anyway -- You received this bug notification because you are

Some good news. I just tried the recent Trusty Tahr daily snapshot from 1st March 2014 (both 32bit and 64bit). The bcmwl-kernel-source package compiles well and seems to work well too. The question is: Why? The bcmwl-kernel-source package is still the same 6.30.223.141+bdcom-0ubuntu2. The k

Btw., fixing those unknown type names like uint etc. is rather trivial by just defining them within bcmwl-kernel-source. However, that is not really solving the problem because there are other, more complicated things that cause a miscompilation. Meaning that there is something wrong in general.

Update I made a mistake when I wrote that I "strace'd" the building process. strace does not trace into spawned processes. What I saw was the regular compiler output. Anyway, the result is the same. While include/uapi/linux/types.h is being accessed, include/linux/types.h is not being acce

I did not test this on other kernels (just 3.13.0-11-generic), but the problem probably came with the newer kernel. This is looking like some wrong include order or something in that direction. I already made some experiments, but without success so far. What might give some hint: uint is define
