I am currently trying to make myself familiar with building the Debian packages for kernel 2.6 to see whether it's worth to move my local kernel building processes nearer to Debian's own processes.
So I have created a fresh sid chroot with build-essential installed, downlaoded linux-tree-2.6.12, unpacked it, installed the build dependencies and invoked debuild. First round, it failed for not finding libncurses, so I installed libncurses-dev. Now, debuild fails with a short "interrupted(11)", in an xterm which thinks of having 23 lines only. Looks like something goes wrong with make menuconfig, but make menuconfig invoked from the command line works fine. Is that an issue with current sid, or am I doing something wrong? Currently, I am inclined to say that linux-tree-2.6.12 is missing a Build Dependency on ncurses, and that it suffers from other kinds of breakage as well. But I might be mistaken. Can somebody help?
