5.8.8 failed to install: no amd64 directory

Removing index.html from the folder solved it for me. Removed the file and refreshed then I was able to download it and install it.

As noted in the previous comment, sometimes a kernel fails to build. In this case, is there a way to filter it out of the list of offered kernels? Consider this a feature request ;)

[zlamalp]

This can happen randomly for any kernel, since it offers kernels based on the index file - eg. before they are actually build in the ppa for your architecture. Then it stays in this inconsistent state, unless you remove ~/.cache/mainline/<version>/

I am now unable to make any of the workarounds work for 5.9.5 or 5.9.6.

If you look into the PPA itself, you can see, that build of kernel 5.9.5 for amd64 failed, hence you can't install it at all.
For 5.9.6 it was build like seconds ago, so it should work now.

See: https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v5.9.6/

5.9.9 failed to install. Package is not listed in dpkg --list neither before nor after the reboot.

There is no 5.9.9. It failed to build.

Same thing here

Mainline 1.0.12, PopOS 20.04, Linux 5.8.3

[Aisyk]

When i create the directory... it seems to have a problem with dpkg...

[Aisyk]

Now, when Mainline wants to download the last release (5.8.9)

[anibyl]

5.8.9 installation works for me.

[Aisyk]

Ok, i re-try now, installation works with no problem.

[miguelzabala]

I've the same problem.

Linux Mint 20.

@miguelzabala Removing index.html fixed it for me too! Thanks for finding a workaround.

[bkw777]

Curious. Well thanks for finding a work-around at least until the real bug is fixed.

Same thing here on Linux Mint 20

Ahh thank you for figuring that out.

[mauro-miatello]

same with 5.9.3 on Mint 20, after creating manually amd64 folder I've had to remove the folder in .cache to solve

[skyfaller]

aha, 5.9.6 does work for me now :) I will have to look at the ppa itself next time, thank you.
