Thanks for having this fixed. In the meantime, we found some other important modules that are necessary for ppc64el, thus, we would like to include it on the main kernel package also (other than on -extra).
We will open a new bug with these new modules. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1642228 Title: Move some kernel modules to the main kernel package Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Xenial: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Yakkety: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Zesty: Fix Released Bug description: == Comment: #0 - Breno Henrique Leitao <bren...@br.ibm.com> - 2016-10-20 08:51:24 == Hello Canonical, There are important kernel modules that are required on POWER systems, and they are currently on the linux-image-extra packages. So, in this case, every Power system needs to install the -extra package, which makes the -extra package required. My suggestion is to add these important modules to the main archive, so, we do not require the installation of the -extra package. We are working on the full list of packages, but I would like to anticipate these modules: 01. lpfc 02. qla2xxx 03. be2net 04. bnx2x 05. i40e 06. igb 07. ixgbe 08. cxl 09. cxlflash 10. jsm 11. ohci-platform 12. xhci 13. aacraid 14. ipr 15. megaraid_sas 16. mpt3sas 17. powernv-rng 18. ipmi_powernv 19. leds-powernv 20. ibmpowernv 21. opal-prd 22. powernv_flash 23. nx-compress-powernv 24. vfio (all modules: vfio.ko, vfio-pci.ko, vfio_iommu_spapr_tce.ko, vfio_virqfd.ko, vfio_spapr_eeh.ko) *Notice* The driver "qlge" is presented in the preliminary list but it's not necessary.
