bcmwl-kernel-source (again,...)

[Otto Ersek]

hi :-)

the bcwml-kernel-source fails to build on the latest daily iso image (focal)

it seems that the apt repository on the daily images is being stale
with respect to the livefs.

issue seems to be with:
libc-dev-bin_2.31-0ubuntu9.3_amd64.deb
libc6-dev_2.31-0ubuntu9.3_amd64.deb

setup: booting a mac with the daily (verified) dd'd iso, and running "offline" apt install bcmwl-kernel-source

Thanks. I've cleared some stuck builds. Tomorrow's dailies *should* be OK. Could you check with an image 20210410 or later please and close this bug if it's all good then?

[Otto Ersek (3rs3k)]

hi :-)
I can confirm the 20210410 daily iso works as expected.
The wl.ko builds w/o any issues now.
Thank you very much for solving the issue that fast.

Kind regards
Otto
