Good point. I will try it inside a clean VM and report back.

This should not happen, because there are no files in the package itself under /lib. Are you sure there are no leftover files from a previous package?

I am unable to install linux-gpib-dkms 4.1.0-1 built on current Arch Linux. pacman -U complains with the following error message:

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
linux-gpib-dkms: /lib exists in filesystem
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

It seems these files should go to /usr/lib instead to /lib which is a symlink to /usr/lib (at least in the current filesystem package). I "solved" this by adding the following lines to the end of package():

     cp -r "${pkgdir}/lib" "${pkgdir}/usr"
     rm -rf "${pkgdir}/lib"

It seems the problematic line is the patch line #include <linux/sched/signal.h> signal.h seems to be missing from 4.9 but seems to be required for the module to be build correctly on 4.11. Because at the moment I'm a little busy can you please try the following on LTS? * Remove linux-gpib-dkms * Download the source tarball [0] * Unpack (tar xvfz) * Edit the PKGBUILD removing line 38 (patch -Np1 -i "../linux-4.11.patch") * Make the package again (makepkg -sf) If that works then we will need a conditional define guard on the header. 0: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/snapshot/linux-gpib-dkms.tar.gz

Just curious Neros, was this the latest version (4.0.4rc2-3) which includes linux-4.11.patch?

Version 4.0.4rc2 does not build on kernel 4.11.2-1. Created a patch file from upstream bug report: https://sourceforge.net/p/linux-gpib/bugs/61/ https://pastebin.com/raw/HLKheJV0 Tested by trying to build module after kernel upgrade ;)

Hello small issue. The $PYTHON varible does not seem to be set during update of the kernel. resulting in. ==> dkms install linux-gpib/4.0.4rc2 -k 4.10.4-1-ARCH /var/lib/dkms/linux-gpib/4.0.4rc2/build/configure: line 13334: -c: command not found /var/lib/dkms/linux-gpib/4.0.4rc2/build/configure: line 13335: -c: command not found the offending line is. py_prefix=`$PYTHON -c "import sys; print(sys.prefix)"` python is installed as running python -c "import sys; print(sys.prefix)" in the terminal works.

Sorry to bother you again but I don't understand how to load the modules. On Ubuntu, I launch them with a `modprobe` (e.g.`modprobe agilent_82357a`). But here, there is nothing I can do with modprobe because there is no module to load... Plus, there is no /dev/gpib0. Am I missing something?

Neros commented on 2016-07-18 23:26 (UTC)

It was easy, it works. Just add as a dependencies: 'linux-headers'
