Hi Franz, I'm wondering whether the problem you are having and the one the batman-adv project has are the same:
https://www.open-mesh.org/issues/303 There too, on Debian Stretch + Sid patching through coccinelle works fine. Debian Jessie fails. Franz, do you have the same error when trying to issue your command with a coccinelle build from the vanilla 1.0.6 git tag on a Debian Jessie? Does changing any of the ./configure options change anything for you? For batman-adv we are currently wondering whether our (and maybe your issue, too?) might have something to do with the build options used for the coccinelle 1.0.0~rc22.deb-1 package. Regards, Linus
