Package: linux-headers-5.4.0-0.bpo.2-common
Version: 5.4.8-1~bpo10+1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

After I installed latest backported kernel 5.4.0-0.bpo.2 from Debian
backports repository, it is not possible to install any software
that needs to compile kernel module. For example VMware Player.

During kernel module compilation following message appears:

/usr/src/linux-headers-5.4.0-0.bpo.2-common-rt/scripts/Makefile.build:42:
/usr/src/linux-headers-5.4.0-0.bpo.2-common-rt/scripts/basic/Makefile: No such
file or directory




Full log is listed below:

This issue is not present with older backported kernels.

This does still work, in general:

[...]

This is the problem: the SUBDIRS variable in Kbuild has been deprecated
for years, warned about since Linux 5.0, and is unsupported starting
with Linux 5.4.  The distributor for this module (which doesn't seem to
be Debian) needs to replace "SUBDIRS" with "KBUILD_EXTMOD".
