Hi Bill, > Can you advise, is the current build environment still Fedora 6 as > suggested on this wiki page:

I built a kernel with F8 yesterday, though, and had to make two changes: * GNU tar no longer allows you to (e.g.) "tar xf foo.tar '*.h'" without adding a --wildcards before the pattern. In the specfile, change: 'linux-2.6.[0-9][0-9]/Makefile' to --wildcards 'linux-2.6.[0-9][0-9]/Makefile' * The debuginfo packaging failed. Adding: %define _enable_debug_packages 0 to the top of the specfile disables that part of the build, and produced a working kernel package. Hope that helps. - Chris. -- Chris Ball <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
