[Bug 1368735] [NEW] Error! Your kernel headers for kernel 3.16.0-14-generic cannot be found.

 

Public bug reported:

Hi,

Within distribution upgrade from 14.04 to 14.10 the following errors
occurred:

Examining /etc/kernel/postinst.d.
run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal 3.16.0-14-generic /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-14-generic
run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postinst.d/dkms 3.16.0-14-generic /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-14-generic
Error! Your kernel headers for kernel 3.16.0-14-generic cannot be found.
Please install the linux-headers-3.16.0-14-generic package,
or use the --kernelsourcedir option to tell DKMS where it's located
Error! Your kernel headers for kernel 3.16.0-14-generic cannot be found.
Please install the linux-headers-3.16.0-14-generic package,

Kind Regards,

P.S.  I am not sure if I should report this error but linux kernel
header packages should be probably installed automatically within
distribution upgrade process - because it is always happening of
"rebuilding" some module/s . Even in case of any new kernel version is
going to be installed - as everybody knows :-)  Just a suggestion :-)
