Creating kernel headers fails

Ltty opened this issue · 6 comments

Hi Alex,

after the latest update, PIVCCU does not start anymore. Already tried to reinstall the official kernel headers and reconfigure pivccu. Any idea on how to resolve this issue?

Did you update your kernel using rpi-update?

Yes, I did

You should not update the kernel using rpi-update, the Raspberry Pi foundation clearly states, that this should only be done, if they ask for it in case of debugging a kernel issue.
rpi-update installs a kernel for which no kernel header packages exist. Please reinstall the official kernel package using apt, then you will be able to install the (matching) header package.

Damn, thanks for the hint.

Do you have the steps at hand on how to revert the kernel version via apt?

sudo apt-get install --reinstall raspberrypi-bootloader raspberrypi-kernel gives me an error:

Reinstallation of raspberrypi-bootloader is not possible, it cannot be downloaded.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install --reinstall raspberrypi-bootloader raspberrypi-kernel
