If you put -grsec just after kernel version works fine :)
the grsec people chose to use the localversion way to put the grsec option behind the kernel instead of patching the makefile (which, in every version of the kernel has to be corrected). so it's quite normal to do so imho. so basicly , it's a problem of make-kpkg, which doesnt seem to handle it all that well... time to warn debian people about this? or does the community feel that i should change the patch? (and grsecurity theirs?) for me, the localversion way to do things is a lot easier and more flexible just my 2 cents... -- harry aka Rik Bobbaers K.U.Leuven - LUDIT -=- Tel: +32 485 52 71 50 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -=- http://harry.ulyssis.org "Work hard and do your best, it'll make it easier for the rest" -- Garfield Disclaimer: http://www.kuleuven.be/cwis/email_disclaimer.htm _______________________________________________ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
