[LU-15005] Ubuntu dkms packages do not list all dependancies required

Duplicate — Wed, 6 Jul 2022 03:37:27 +0000

When you try and install a lustre-client-modules-dkms package on a clean upstream ubuntu image then installation fails unless a number of other packages are installed in advance.

Adding the following patch to lustre 2.14.0 appears to solve the issue.
