[Pkg-zfsonlinux-devel] Bug#1098779: zfs-dkms: zfs/2.3.0 fails to build with kenel 6.12.16-amd64

[jfp]

Package: zfs-dkms
Version: 2.3.0-1
Severity: serious
Justification: unkown

Dear Maintainer,

apt update failed to compile the zfs 2.3.0 module against 6.12.16

Manually compiling it, I get:
dkms build -m zfs -v 2.3.0 -k 6.12.16-amd64

Sign command: /lib/modules/6.12.16-amd64/build/scripts/sign-file
Signing key: /var/lib/dkms/mok.key
Public certificate (MOK): /var/lib/dkms/mok.pub

Running the pre_build script....(bad exit status: 1)
Failed command:
cd /var/lib/dkms/zfs/2.3.0/build/ && /var/lib/dkms/zfs/2.3.0/build/configure
--disable-dependency-tracking --prefix=/usr --with-config=kernel --with-
linux=/lib/modules/6.12.16-amd64/source --with-linux-
obj=/lib/modules/6.12.16-amd64/build --with-qat= --host=


Again manually running it, I get:
cd /var/lib/dkms/zfs/2.3.0/build/
/var/lib/dkms/zfs/2.3.0/build/configure --disable-dependency-tracking
--prefix=/usr --with-config=kernel --with-
linux=/lib/modules/6.12.16-amd64/source --with-linux-
obj=/lib/modules/6.12.16-amd64/build --with-qat= --host=


checking whether CONFIG_MODULES is defined... no

get this:
configure: error:
                *** This kernel does not include the required loadable module
                *** support!
