Package: iscsitarget-dkms

Version: 1.4.20.2-10.1

Severity: normal



Dear Maintainer,



I was installing iscsitarget-dkms on a brand new Wheezy system.

In aptitude I disable the feature 'Install recommended packages automatically'

when installing the package I received the error



---snip---

Setting up iscsitarget-dkms (1.4.20.2-10.1) ...



Creating symlink /var/lib/dkms/iscsitarget/1.4.20.2/source ->

                 /usr/src/iscsitarget-1.4.20.2



DKMS: add completed.

Error! Your kernel headers for kernel 3.2.0-4-amd64 cannot be found.

Please install the linux-headers-3.2.0-4-amd64 package,

or use the --kernelsourcedir option to tell DKMS where it's located

Press Return to continue.

---end snip---



Since the kernel headers are required for this package to install properly

maybe consider making the linux-headers package a depends package.



Thank you,

Conrad
