Package: kernel-package Version: 10.065 Severity: normal As noted in /usr/share/doc/kernel-package/Problems.gz, scripts/setlocalversion adds a suffix to the version which confuses make-kpkg. The patch in Problems.gz only removes the -dirty suffix, but there is an additional truncated commit ID added by the script whenever it detects that we are not building from a tagged commit of the official tree (I think):
echo done > debian/stamp-build-kernel ====== making target install/linux-uml-2.6.20-rc3 [new prereqs: ]====== This is kernel package version 10.065. echo "The UTS Release version in include/linux/utsrelease.h"; echo " \"2.6.20-rc3-gf66e5aaa\" "; echo "does not match current version:"; echo " \"2.6.20-rc3\" "; echo "Please correct this."; exit 2 The UTS Release version in include/linux/utsrelease.h "2.6.20-rc3-gf66e5aaa" does not match current version: "2.6.20-rc3" Please correct this. make: *** [install/linux-uml-2.6.20-rc3] Fel 2 To work around this, I simply removed all the code in scripts/setlocalversion, making it an empty script. It would be useful if make-kpkg would either grok the suffix appended by the setlocalversion, or somehow disable it altogether. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-3-xen-686 Locale: LANG=sv_SE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=sv_SE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages kernel-package depends on: ii dpkg 1.13.24 package maintenance system for Deb ii dpkg-dev 1.13.24 package building tools for Debian ii file 4.17-5 Determines file type using "magic" ii gcc [c-compiler] 4:4.1.1-13 The GNU C compiler ii gcc-4.1 [c-compiler] 4.1.1-21 The GNU C compiler ii gettext 0.16.1-1 GNU Internationalization utilities ii make 3.81-2 The GNU version of the "make" util ii perl 5.8.8-7 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii po-debconf 1.0.8 manage translated Debconf template Versions of packages kernel-package recommends: ii bzip2 1.0.3-6 high-quality block-sorting file co ii libc6-dev [libc-dev] 2.3.6.ds1-9 GNU C Library: Development Librari -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
