Package: linux-source-2.6
Severity: important
I compile my own kernel with kernel-package, but new 2.6.26 source fails
at the very end of the compiling. I tried to compile from 2.6.30 source,
but same thing happens. Both kernel source came from official Debian
mirror, they are linux-source-2.6.xx packages. Perhaps other versions of
source suffer of same problem, but I have not tested yet.
When I type "fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd --revision=uxie.1.2 kernel_image"
the following error message is displayed:

I thought it was kernel-package bug, but investigating further I found it's
likely to be a kernel source bug. Typing "fakeroot make all", everything
goes fine, producing many .o and .ko files.
The problem arises when I type "fakeroot make deb-pkg", and the following
error message is printed:

It could be a bug in fakeroot, but I ruled it out compiling the kernel as
the root user, and the same behavior has been detected. I changed
ownerships and permissions of directory tree, but all attempts have been
fruitless.
That bug does not render the linux-source useless because I can make its
tarball, using the command "fakeroot make tarbz2-pkg". The resulting
kernel image is installed without problem in my computer. Nevertheless
this workaround is unsatisfactory for me, I preferred to make things in
"Debian way" installing the kernel image like any normal .deb package.
Thanks in advance.
