[pve-devel] Failing to build pve-kernel 5.0.x from git

[Chris Hofstaedtler | Deduktiva]

Hi,

I'm trying to build the current pve-kernel from git, but apparently
this needs some extra tarballs? Am I holding it wrong?

Log (after git clone, git submodule update --init):

$ git describe --always

$ ls submodules/zfsonlinux/upstream/

Any hints would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris

PS: the README still says things about bionic, while this is
building a disco-based kernel.
