Package: kernel-package Version: 12.031 Severity: normal Hi,
I compile an i386 kernel on an amd64 system with the following command: DEB_HOST_ARCH=i386 make-kpkg --rootcmd fakeroot --initrd --cross_compile - --arch i386 ... The kernel_image works fine. However, all the ELF executables in the scripts/ directory of the the kernel_headers package are 64 bit executable. E.g.: $ file scripts/genksyms/genksyms scripts/genksyms/genksyms: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), ... Therefore building modules on the target host (i386) using the kernel_headers package fails, because these scripts can't be executed.
