linux-aws package lacks zram.ko, but builds it.

[Piotr Karbowski]

The linux-aws package lacks zram.ko module, but according to delivered /boot/config-*-aws, the zram is built. Would it be possible to add the zram module into linux-aws package in Ubuntu 16.04 just like linux-image-lowlatency have? (Or via linux-image-extra packages, like other variants have)

I've checked linux-aws-4.4.0.1032.34 and no module is present there, the 'apt-file search zram.ko' did not yield any of the 'aws' packages.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

switched for tests to generic kernel (currently without other problems), but hope it will be fixed soon for aws kernel

Hello Piotr and anyone else who is affected by this bug,

The zram.ko can be found in the linux-modules-extra package for AWS
[1] on different releases,
You can install the meta package linux-modules-extra-aws to get it.

I will mark this bug as Incomplete for now, let me know if this can solve the problem for you.
Thanks!
