Package: spl-dkms
Version: 0.6.5.8-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I tried building and installing the new spl-dkms from testing/unstable on my
Jessie system, which built fine, and reportedly installed fine.

Unfortunately, the fix for #836578 breaks the package for DKMS < 2.2.1.0,
resulting in an apparently successful install, but the zfs-dkms package will
spin forever waiting for .../module/spl_config.h to exist.

Please either include a workaround for DKMS < 2.2.1.0 (I'd offer one but I
don't know enough about how these systems function to guess how it might
work) or mark the package as requiring DKMS > 2.2.1.0.
