I'm trying to make a dkms rpm package of ivtv-0.2.0-rc3c. I've managed to build the package, but the dkms build fails because dkms uses the following command to build the modules:
# make KERNELRELEASE=2.6.8.1-20mdk make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
Seems that Makefile2.6 contains:
ifneq ($(KERNELRELEASE),)
which seems to be block this. Is there an easy way to get round this?
Can you change the dkms build to not set KERNELRELEASE?
I guess I could, but this would require changing dkms.
I don't know why they do it this way. I didn't see any patches to my dkms installation that changed this, so it's the default dkms behaviour.
It seems that this changelog entry to dkms added the functionality.

* Kernel makefiles are no longer edited during kernel preparation. Instead KERNELRELEASE=$kernel_version is passed to make commands.
You should only set KDIR.OK. then the KDIR points to the place where the kernel you want to build for is installed?
