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

[Evgeni Golov (evgeni)]

This has been fixed in Debian in 0.1.97-1 (experimental). Ubuntu 15.04 will need an own fix, though.

[Evgeni Golov (evgeni)]

I have prepared a version that can be used for Vivid, if Ubuntu does not want to sync from Debian experimental.

Can someone please try https://people.debian.org/~evgeni/tmp/sysdig/sysdig-dkms_0.1.89-1ubuntu1_all.deb on Vivid? It compiles fine on my Debian 3.19.

Full source is at https://people.debian.org/~evgeni/tmp/sysdig/sysdig_0.1.89-1ubuntu1.dsc and https://github.com/evgeni/sysdig/tree/ubuntu/vivid

[Evgeni Golov (evgeni)]

Subscribed Ubuntu Kernel Team, as they are triaging dkms build-failures with 3.19

[Andy Whitcroft (apw)]

The supplied diff seems to work. Will sponsor.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package sysdig - 0.1.89-1ubuntu1

---------------
sysdig (0.1.89-1ubuntu1) vivid; urgency=medium

  * Backport two patches from upstream for compiling against kernel 3.19
