While looking at this file, I discovered a circumvention. Use the make variable KBUILD_DEBARCH=s390x This works, even with an unmodified builddeb script. In my test case, I set CONFIG_LOCALVERSION to -1custom01-s390x during kernel configuration (under General Setup). I also set CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO off. (This is under Kernel Hacking.) Then I issued make KDEB_PKGVERSION=3.14.4-1 KBUILD_PKG_ROOTCMD=fakeroot \ INSTALL_MOD_STRIP=1 KBUILD_DEBARCH=s390x deb-pkg as a non-root user. It built a kernel image package just the way I wanted it. -- .''`. Stephen Powell : :' : `. `'` `- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#750925: make deb-pkg produces a non-installable package on the s390x architecture
Package: linux Version: 3.14.4-1 Severity: normal make deb-pkg, when issued on the s390x architecture, produces a non-installable package. The package is built for the s390 architecture, not the s390x architecture, and dpkg won't allow it to be installed, even if the package file is renamed to the expected naming convention (*_s390x.deb). -- .''`.

You can probably install it if you run 'dpkg --add-architecture s390' first. I previously sent a patch for this upstream in 1381079114.2788.26.ca...@deadeye.wl.decadent.org.uk, but this hasn't been applied yet.
