Bug Description
Binary package hint: apport
Apport should not file a bug report when a module failed to build against an unsupported kernel (not from an official repository or custom made kernel)
e.g bug 580392
DKMS make.log for fglrx-8.723.1 for kernel 2.6.33.3-henrik-01 (i686)
Most of the time it fails to build because the corresponding headers are not installed or incompatible with the current version of the module.
Instead of that it should display a message indicating that the user is not using a genuine kernel from an official repository.
