Sorry for confusing. I am not sure, but this bug here can then be closed? ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #704116 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=704116 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gst-plugins-ugly0.10 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1160735 Title: man make-kpkg not uptodate Status in “gst-plugins-ugly0.10” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I am using Kubuntu 12.10 32bit in a german version. The man-page (german) of make-kpkg is from 2002 and have one wrong and some incomplete informations. I don't know how to check the original english version of the man-page to check if it is a translation or a generel problem. 1. wrong information The man-page tell that there is a need to run make-kpkg as root (what is extrem risky!), with fakeroot or to tell him by parameter how to become (fakeroot) root. I tested it myself. From userside there is no need to tell make-kpkg how to become root or to run it as (fake)root. Because make-kpkg handle it for itself. I checked it. All files in my created deb are with root-rights without running make-kpkg as (fake)root. Just cancle this infor. 2. missing and incomplite configuration Two usual usecases for make-kpkg: a) The configuration of the kernel is completely missing. b) The configuration is from an older kernel-version and some new-options there are unset. So the config is incomplete. How does make-kpkg behave in such situations? The man-page-described behaviour is unclear and maybe wrong. (I need more time to test it myself.) The author or code-maintainer should be contacted to clearing this questions and bring the man-page to a real state.
