[Pkg-zfsonlinux-devel] Bug#903112: Waits for spl build directory

[Yuri D'Elia]

Package: zfs-dkms
Version: 0.7.9-3
Followup-For: Bug #903112

After reading through config/kernel.m4, I encourage the debian package
of zfs-dkms to add:

  --with-spl-timeout=0

to the configure invocation. Concurrent build of spl and dkms is *not*
possible in debian, as spl is listed as a pre-depends for zfs.

The current behavior stalls the build process if any incompatible kernel
happens to be installed. This shouldn't happen.

And this happens too often: the *current* kernel happens to be
incompatible.
