Yeah, I've seen that before.  It's a whitespace bug in the KConfig
file.  Just open it in a text editor, go to the line in question, and
fix the leading whitespace to match all the other entries (If I
recall, you'll actually see it occur in two or three places).

It's a trivial fix - feel free to submit a patch so people don't hit
it in the future.

kconf syntax error when doing make menuconfig

2015-04-09 Thread Amex
Hi guys,
 
i'm trying to select only specific modules with menuconfig but get this:
 
ubuntu@***:~/media_build$ sudo make menuconfig
make -C /home/ubuntu/media_build/v4l menuconfig
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/ubuntu/media_build/v4l'
make -C /lib/modules/3.13.0-44-generic/build -f

dot-config=0 SRCDIR=/lib/modules/3.13.0-44-generic/build v4l-mconf
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-3.13.0-44-generic'

make[1]: *** [menuconfig] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/ubuntu/media_build/v4l'
make: *** [menuconfig] Error 2

it happens on Amazon EC2 Ubuntu 14.04 aswell as in my own VirtualBox VM

i also get this with make xconfig. just running ./build, however, works
