Dear all,

My openSUSE Tumbleweed installation keeps getting warning message like following when upgrade the system, ``` dkms-acpi_call-1.1.0-6.210.noarch.rpm %posttrans script failed (returned 10) ``` Does anyone know what is the status?

Best regards, ZHX

Thank you, Simon,

Its hard to know, because atleast software.opensuse.org doesn't show this as an official package, but if I was to guess just by looking at the first unofficial package i picked on obs, which is using the %posttrans section to build a new kernel module with dkms i'd say that something in some part of the build is failing, this might give you more details, rpm -qi the package name should give you the release and version numbers.

The package is `dkms-acpi_call` from a user repository named "revealed" (http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/revealed/ openSUSE_Tumbleweed/) The detailed information is, ``` # rpm -qi dkms-acpi_call Name : dkms-acpi_call Version : 1.1.0 Release : 6.210 Architecture: noarch Install Date: Tue 03 Jul 2018 22:34:41 HKT Group : System/Kernel Size : 31969 License : GPL-3.0+ Signature : RSA/SHA256, Tue 03 Jul 2018 01:08:58 HKT, Key ID 27f8fd18648a2450 Source RPM : dkms-acpi_call-1.1.0-6.210.src.rpm Build Date : Tue 03 Jul 2018 01:08:49 HKT Build Host : cloud120 Relocations : (not relocatable) Vendor : The Bumblebee Project URL : https://github.com/mkottman/acpi_call Summary : Kernel module to call ACPI methods Description : A kernel module that enables you to call ACPI methods by writing the method name followed by arguments to /proc/acpi/call, for example to turn off discrete graphics card in a dual graphics environment (like NVIDIA Optimus). This version is intended for setting battery of ThinkPad notebook. tpacpi-bat supports ThinkPad T420(s)/T520/W520/X220 and newer models only. Distribution: home:revealed / openSUSE_Tumbleweed ```

/usr/sbin/dkms build -m acpi_call -v %{version}-%{release}

I am not sure what the last command you gave should look like. I got the following message, ``` # /usr/sbin/dkms build -m acpi_call -v 1.1.0-6.210 Kernel preparation unnecessary for this kernel.

Well, you should have a look at that log. Here is the log,

It looks like the function name is not right. Should I report it to the developer, such as opening an issue in the GitHub page? -- Best regards, ZHX -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner@opensuse.org

That's what I would do. Thanks, Mike :)
