Hi,

which exact kernel version is that? Which exact compiler version is
that?

At the first glance, that looks like some DKMS bug to me (see the
strange shell warning).

I just tested the module-assistant based build with a locally built
6.6.18 on Stable, works like a charm.

"/usr/share/modass/packages/default.sh" build KVERS=6.6.18 KSRC=/lib/modules/6.6.18/build KDREV=6.6.18-5 kdist_image
Done with /usr/src/broadcom-sta-modules-6.6.18_6.30.223.271-23+6.6.18-5_all.deb .
dpkg -Ei /usr/src/broadcom-sta-modules-6.6.18_6.30.223.271-23+6.6.18-5_all.deb

broadcom-sta-modules-6.6.18 set to automatically installed.

Please elaborate!

Eduard.
