It seems I found a fix for this. dkms.conf in openvswitch module sources lacks «AUTOINSTALL="yes"» entry, so this module won't rebuild on kernel updates.
Go to /usr/src/openvswitch-1.4.0 and add 'AUTOINSTALL=yes' to the end of the file. It should look like this: ================================================== PACKAGE_NAME="openvswitch" PACKAGE_VERSION="1.4.0" MAKE="./configure --with-linux=/usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r` ; make -C datapath/linux" BUILT_MODULE_NAME[0]=openvswitch_mod BUILT_MODULE_NAME[1]=brcompat_mod BUILT_MODULE_LOCATION[0]=datapath/linux/ BUILT_MODULE_LOCATION[1]=datapath/linux/ DEST_MODULE_LOCATION[0]=/kernel/drivers/net/openvswitch/ DEST_MODULE_LOCATION[1]=/kernel/drivers/net/openvswitch/ AUTOINSTALL="yes" ================================================== You can do it faster with this command: # echo 'AUTOINSTALL="yes"' >> /usr/src/openvswitch-1.4.0/dkms.conf This should fix module building on kernel updates. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openvswitch in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/962189 Title: dkms module is not automatically rebuild when installing new linux- image package To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openvswitch/+bug/962189/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
