Bug#464407: rt73-source: compile fails if using make-kpkg

[Lee Garrett]

Hi there,

argh, the bug tracker didn't send me the replies, I just noticed by chance 
that there was some feedback :-/


A way to use make-kpkg:
In your build kernel source tree (from vanilla, or stock debian) issue an

$ fakeroot make-kpkg modules-image --added-modules rt73


Normally, like I build my kernel and out-of-tree modules usually is:

$ make-kpkg --rootcmd fakeroot kernel_image
$ make-kpkg --rootcmd fakeroot modules_image --added-modules lirc

Whereas "lirc" (just an example) would be an unpacked out-of-tree module under 
/usr/src/modules.


Hope that helps to narrow down the problem. If you need any more information, 
just let me know.


Kind regards,
Lee

Hi. Could you write me some example, how to call make-kpkg? I didn't
use it for ages and I simply don't now how to verify it, but last time
the yada-based packages was built correctly.

Thanks.

The debian/rules file for rt73-modules needs to be generated using yada.
KVERS and KSRC are expanded at this time.  Currently it's generated when
rt73-source is built, but obviously it needs to be regenerated when the
modules are built.  That seems to have been missed here, and I can't see
how this regeneration is supposed to be triggered.

Piotr?

Ben.

Bug#464407: rt73-source: compile fails if using make-kpkg

Package: rt73-source
Version: 1:1.0.3.6-cvs20071123-dfsg1-3
Severity: normal

Hi there,

using make-kpkg to build a the rt73 modules doesn't work. See below for details.
Note that I'm trying to compile the modules for a kernel different than the
running one. Building other out-of-tree modules works with this method, so I
don't there is a PEBKAC error here. :)

My guess is that debian/rules ignores the variables KSRC and KVERS, but I
didn't dig too far on that.

Feel free to ask me any questions or hint me in the right direction.

Kind regards,
Lee Garrett
