Subject: bullseye to bookworm upgrade failure: Could not locate dkms.conf file

Date: Thu, 17 Nov 2022 10:31:25 -0500

Package: zfs-dkms
Version: 2.1.6-3
Severity: serious

I have tried to upgrade to bookworm today and kernel builds fail on
zfs-dkms. It fails with:

dkms: running auto installation service for kernel 6.0.0-4-amd64:Error! Could not locate dkms.conf file.
File: /var/lib/dkms/zfs/2.0.3/source/dkms.conf does not exist.

It's odd because zfs 2.0.3 is gone now... The package has been
upgraded at this point... Yet the /var/lib/dkms/zfs/2.0.3 directory
was still around. Removing it fixes the problem:

    rm -rf /var/lib/dkms/zfs/2.0.3

Note that I am doing batch upgrades with a special procedure, with
this command:

    env DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive APT_LISTCHANGES_FRONTEND=none APT_LISTBUGS_FRONTEND=none UCF_FORCE_CONFFOLD=y \
        apt full-upgrade -y -o Dpkg::Options::='--force-confdef' -o Dpkg::Options::='--force-confold' &&

... which might have cause the old directory to not be removed.

See this for my upgrade procedure:

Date: Sat, 03 Dec 2022 20:56:27 -0500

Control: severity -1 important
Control: tags -1 +moreinfo

I'm still not sure about why the upgrade failed, and I could not
reproduce the problem in a clean chroot using the following script:

https://salsa.debian.org/zfsonlinux-team/zfs/-/blob/master/debian/tests/sbuild-shell-bullseye-to-bookworm.sh

So I'm downgrading the bug's severity to unblock migration.

Followup-For: Bug #1024326
Control: tag -1 unreproducible

This is probably some rare corruption of the dkms data tree and to be
blamed on dkms (not neccessarily for creating it, but by not handling
some error conditions). Feel free to reassign.
There have been some improvements to make dkms more resilient against
such issues (if we somehow could reprocude getting in such a state).
