Package: kernel-package
Version: 12.017
Severity: minor

Hi Manoj.

As far as I understand kernel-pkg.conf(5) setting "delete_build_link := yes" would mean that there's no ./lib/modules/2.6.30-heisenberg/build -> something in the resulting image-deb-file, right?
It is however ;)

Any idea?


Thanks and best wishes,
Chris :)

        Nope. As the man page says
,----[  Manual page kernel-pkg.conf(5) ]
|  delete_build_link
|         If set to YES, the symbolic link /lib/modules/$VERSION/build
|         shall be removed from the resulting .deb package.  The
|         environment variable DELETE_BUILD_LINK overrides this.

        The setting is case sensitive:

,----[ kernel/ruleset/targets/image.mk ]
| ifeq ($(strip $(delete_build_link)),YES)
|         rm -f $(TMPTOP)/lib/modules/$(KERNELRELEASE)/build
| endif
`----

        So, change the value to YES, and you will see the desired
 results.
