Hi,

I have a kernel module I maintain in the hardware project. From time to time I get the following comment from the repo checker:

Repo Checker wrote in package hardware/hdjmod:

The version of this package in openSUSE:Factory has installation issues and

may not be installable:

can't install hdjmod-kmp-default-1.28_k4.17.3_1-24.3.i586: nothing provides kernel-uname-r = 4.17.3-1-default needed by hdjmod-kmp-

default-1.28_k4.17.3_1-24.3.i586

(we have kernel-default-base-4.17.4-1.4.i586)
(we have kernel-default-4.17.4-1.4.i586)

can't install hdjmod-kmp-pae-1.28_k4.17.3_1-24.3.i586: nothing provides kernel-pae needed by hdjmod-kmp-

pae-1.28_k4.17.3_1-24.3.i586

nothing provides kernel-uname-r = 4.17.3-1-pae needed by hdjmod-kmp-

pae-1.28_k4.17.3_1-24.3.i586

(we have kernel-default-base-4.17.4-1.4.i586)
(we have kernel-default-4.17.4-1.4.i586)

TBH, it is completely unclear to me weather this is some transient error caused by new kernel builds or an actual problem, and repo checker not being locally runnable doesn't help the problem [1].

The problem does not show for x86_64 and the package is completely based on the standard process for building kernel packages on OBS [2]. Is there anything obvious I might be doing wrong? Any hints on what I could do to lock in the the underlying issue?

Kind Regards, Matthias
