Package: linux-kbuild-2.6.18 Version: 2.6.18-1 If a module source directory does not provide source for any complete modules, "stage 2" of the build runs modpost with no filenames. The upstream version of modpost silently does nothing in this case (so far as I can see). Debian's wrapper unconditionally uses the first non-option argument as a filename, but if there are no such arguments it uses a null pointer and fails.
This prevents some of our drivers from building on etch, though we can work around it. I think the wrapper should be compatible and do nothing if given no non-option arguments. Ben. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
