Hello James,

I applied the patch you provided and tried the steps you mentioned. I am
using omap2plus_defconfig, but the make deb-pkg fails with the following
error:

dpkg-gencontrol: error: current host architecture 'armel' does not appear in
package's architecture list ()
make[1]: *** [deb-pkg] Error 255
make: *** [deb-pkg] Error 2

Any idea of why this could be ?

Thanks and Regards,
Deepti.
