Comment 8 for bug 306346

@Mircea:

If by the "package installs successfully" you mean DKMS is able to build all the modules then this bug is completely solved. There's no way Ubuntu can support the arbitrary replacement of files once a package is installed. (I'm not affiliated in any way with Ubuntu, mind.)

If however you mean the DKMS build still fails, then this is still a problem - although one I sadly cannot reproduce.

Assuming it works, I'll try to find time to refresh the debdiff against jaunty since I believe that also has the same issue.

** OFF TOPIC **
That being said, I'm trying to build a LIRC CVS package at the moment which will contain the updates I'm guessing you require. I'll let you know when and if I have any success with that.

(The problem I'm having with the build is it calls config.status --recheck and then proceeds to "fork bomb" me with configure scripts causing my machine to completely lock up! If anyone has any ideas please feel free to contact me outside of this bug report so we don't pollute it with irrelevant discussion.)
