[Solved] broadcom-wl-dkms fails to install on the 6.0.1 kernel

Zodigram · 2022-10-13 19:50:50

Although it works fine for 5.15.73, on 6.0.1 I now get

==> dkms install --no-depmod broadcom-wl/6.30.223.271 -k 6.0.1-arch1-1
Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 6.0.1-arch1-1 (x86_64)
Consult /var/lib/dkms/broadcom-wl/6.30.223.271/build/make.log for more information.
==> WARNING: `dkms install --no-depmod broadcom-wl/6.30.223.271 -k 6.0.1-arch1-1' exited 10

Checking /var/lib/dkms/broadcom-wl/6.30.223.271/build/make.log shows me

Please edit your post and put [⁣code] [⁣/code] tags around all commands and their outputs, it makes things much easier to read for everyone.

Thanks for letting me know about the code tags

I also did search within the Kernel & Hardware section for any similar post, but I guess I overlooked the Newbie Corner
