[Bug 1724869] Please test proposed package

[Brian Murray]

Hello Seth, or anyone else affected,

Accepted ndiswrapper into xenial-proposed. The package will build now
and be available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ndiswrapper/1.60-3~ubuntu16.04.2 in
a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-xenial to verification-done-xenial. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-xenial. In either case, details of your
testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

Title:
  ndiswrapper 1.60-3~ubuntu16.04.1 ADT test failure with linux-hwe-edge
  4.13.0-16.19~16.04.3

Status in ndiswrapper package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in ndiswrapper source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Currently the DKMS package fails to install in supported custom
  kernels that are based on 4.11 or 4.13. That includes the current 4.11
  hwe-edge and the upcoming 4.13 hwe-edge kernels and some of the custom
  and cloud kernels as well.

  [Test Case]

  Install the DKMS package with the 4.13 hwe-edge kernel from -proposed.
  The package installation should proceed without any errors.

  [Regression Potential]

  Although new patches were added, the regression risk is very low since
  the new changes are conditionally compiled based on the kernel
  version.

  Besides that the new package was tested with the following kernels in
  an amd64 environment:

  - linux-generic 4.4
  - linux-hwe 4.10
  - linux-hwe-edge 4.11
  - linux-hwe-edge 4.13 (from xenial-proposed)
  - linux-azure 4.11
  - linux-azure-edge 4.13 (which is in process of getting promoted to
    xenial-proposed)
