Package: kernel-package Version: 10.068 Severity: normal make-kpkg(1) says:
------------------------------------------------------------
debian: This target creates the ./debian directory, and optionally
patches the source. This is called by the configure target. You may
use this target to have the sources patched, and then manually run the
configuration step.
------------------------------------------------------------
However, make-kpkg debian seems to require that .config is present
(the same happens with --added-patches). The following source is from
the package linux-source-2.6.18:
------------------------------------------------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src$ tar jxf linux-source-2.6.18.tar.bz2
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src$ cd linux-source-2.6.18
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.18$ make-kpkg debian
exec make -f /usr/share/kernel-package/ruleset/minimal.mk debian
/usr/share/kernel-package/ruleset/minimal.mk:53: No .config file found
/usr/share/kernel-package/ruleset/minimal.mk:98: *** Please create a .config
file. Stop.
------------------------------------------------------------
From how I interpret the man page, it seems that make-kpkg debian
should work without a .config.
If I do a "touch .config", make-kpkg debian works. However, even with
--added-patches debian,grsecurity2, no patches are applied. I need to
do a second "make-kpkg debian" with the same parameters to have the
patches applied. Even then I'm left with an empty .config (I assume
one of the patches would provide the Debian default .config with
nearly everything compiled as modules?).
The patches I have installed:
