Arch Linux User Repository

Looks like we need a patch for Linux 6.2: https://gerrit.openafs.org/#/c/15281/

I'll update the package later today.

The current version (1.8.9-1) breaks when building against linux-zen 6.2.1.zen1-1.

It seams to work for me. Thank you very much for the quick help.

I just updated this package to make the OpenAFS kernel module build against Linux 5.18. For that I had to use patches that are still under development (they were updated just a few hours ago) and that are not yet accepted for integration into the OpenAFS codebase. On top of that, I had to backport these patches and additional changes from git master to the OpenAFS 1.8.x branch. You should therefore take the current state of this package as experimental. I tested this build as best as I can in my small test cell. However, I won't be responsible for any data loss that people might encounter because of using this package.

If you use this package with Linux 5.18, please report your experience here. These reports might help to get the necessary changes accepted in upstream's stable branch.

Right, we need a couple of patches again to make OpenAFS compatible with Linux 5.18: https://gerrit.openafs.org/#/q/status:open+project:openafs+branch:master+topic:linux-5.18

I will probably not be able to update this package before tomorrow or the day after.

Installing the dkms modules fails on 5.18 kernels. Downgrading to 5.17.9 allows to install the modules again.

The known issue installing dkms packages seams to has been fixed: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/aura-bin/#comment-750621

There is a known issue when installing any dkms package via Aura. See https://github.com/fosskers/aura/issues/584. Please build and install this package manually or use a different AUR helper.

@drslmr: I just notice that you are still running kernel 5.6.11-arch1. That one was still built with GCC 9. This package expects that GCC 10 is used and that may only work when your kernel was also built with GCC 10 (i.e., at least 5.6.11-arch3).

Edit: This is probably not the issue. It's aura. See the pinned comment.
