Oops. I thought I had a GPL line at the header, but it's not. I have updated it. Reload. This new version includes some new features: * reads $HOME/.make-kpkg.rc which is for users to set their own variables (the ones define at the beginning of the script) so that they don't have to directly edit the script * uses bash' "command -v" to read the $PATH and find the location of distcc and ccache. This way is better than calling the files directly (especially for users who don't have root access) Enjoy. I use this script all the time for my kernel. It's fully interactive, so just answer yes or no questions. An example of how to run it: fakeroot ~/bin/make-kpkg.sh -1 # and then answer 3 questions... This will make a kernel package that will have: kernel-image-VERS-1.deb # note the -1 appended to the kernel name EXTRAVERSION Enjoy -- ----)(----- Luis M System Administrator LatinoMixed.com "We think basically you watch television to turn your brain off, and you work on your computer when you want to turn your brain on" -- Steve Jobs in an interview for MacWorld Magazine 2004-Feb No .doc: http://www.fsf.org/philosophy/no-word-attachments.es.html
