Hi, I tried your patch, but there are a few problems. Originally, I was also using KVERS, but this caused problems on i386 archs: the arch name (486) can be different from the arch type (i386), so the name in /lib/module is sometimes different from KVERS ... This also prevents from building xtables-addons source package on a host where the running kernel is different from the targeted. Unfortunately, it seems to be the case on the buildd ! I also have problems with pbuilder: KVERS is empty > Secondly there is a constriction on gcc-4.1 and an apparent dependency on > iptables-dev insofar as this package provides a suitable include file > xtables.h (the kernel-tree does not). The dependency on gcc 4.1 is caused by module-assistant (see /usr/share/modass/include/generic.make) I have fixed it by adding CC = gcc beforing include the m-a files in debian/rules. Yet I am not sure it is very wise to do so, since this dependency is forced by linux-headers. The source package already depends on iptables-dev, as well as the resulting package xtables-addons-source. Do you mean another package ? > > Besides, after that alternatively make-kpkg can be used for building > xtables-addons-source. I don't know of this method, but I'm interested. Can you give me the commands so I can test ? Cheers, Pierre -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
