[Bug 1464703] Re: package linux-image-generic 3.16.0.39.40 failed to install/upgrade: run-parts: /etc/kernel/postinst.d/initramfs-tools exited with return code 1

 

Turns out this happened because of some build exclusive flags in a dkms
conf:

/var/lib/dkms/oem-audio-hda-daily/0.201408221216~ubuntu14.04.1/build/dkms.conf
BUILD_EXCLUSIVE_KERNEL="^3.13.*"

(I do think the whole error reporting should be improved so it becomes
quickly clear what went wrong and why, but that's another story)

** Changed in: initramfs-tools (Ubuntu)
