Package: kernel-package

Severity: minor

Hi.

It's exasperating if the kernel is completely built, and then we find
that some parameter which we chose is now illegal:

dpkg-gencontrol -DArchitecture=amd64 -isp            \
                        -plinux-image-3.4.0 
-P/home/kumar/Software/Kernel/linux-git/debian/linux-image-3.4.0/
create_md5sums_fn () { cd $1 ; find . -type f ! -regex './DEBIAN/.*' ! -regex 
'./var/.*'      -printf '%P\0' | xargs -r0 md5sum > DEBIAN/md5sums ; if [ -z 
"DEBIAN/md5sums" ] ; then rm -f "DEBIAN/md5sums" ; fi ; } ; create_md5sums_fn   
            /home/kumar/Software/Kernel/linux-git/debian/linux-image-3.4.0
chmod -R og=rX                 
/home/kumar/Software/Kernel/linux-git/debian/linux-image-3.4.0
chown -R root:root             
/home/kumar/Software/Kernel/linux-git/debian/linux-image-3.4.0
dpkg --build                   
/home/kumar/Software/Kernel/linux-git/debian/linux-image-3.4.0 ..
dpkg-deb: error: parsing file 
'/home/kumar/Software/Kernel/linux-git/debian/linux-image-3.4.0/DEBIAN/control' 
near line 3 package 'linux-image-3.4.0':

It would be nice if make-kpkg checked for these issues before it
actually started building the kernel.

Thanks.
