Hello all,

Synology ABB provides an ability to backup both Debian and Ubuntu servers. I tried to setup the backup agent on my PVE and got the following:

4 packages can be upgraded. Run 'apt list --upgradable' to see them.
* start checking dependency of (3)
* checking linux-headers-6.11.11-1-pve
* found linux-headers-6.11.11-1-pve not installed, install automatically
* installing linux-headers-6.11.11-1-pve

WARNING: apt does not have a stable CLI interface. Use with caution in scripts.

Please add the source URL, install it from another source, or make sure network connection is available.
* install linux-headers-6.11.11-1-pve failed, please try again later, or run 'apt install linux-headers-6.11.11-1-pve manunally or download and install package from https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/linux-headers-6.11.11-1-pve
If you are using a third-party kernel, please contact the kernel provider for the kernel headers package.
* Please review the highlighted information above.


It looks like the install tool cannot find the linux headers for the kernel. Is this information available? Do I need to add a repo for this?

Thanks,
Steve

Hello, I don't think that putting a compilation chain and compiling a kernel module for a backup solution is a good idea (neither on the security neither on the stability concerns). Personally I would not do that.
Now if you really really want to do so, try :
apt install linux-headers-amd64
