Package: kernel-package Version: 11.001 Followup-For: Bug #410035 I can confirm this behavior. I was seeing it before with patch_the_kernel=YES and no patches. Now I've noticed another related problem that this bug introduced.
I added a patch to my kernel, and noticed that it wasn't getting unpatched. The patch itself tries to maintain a stamp file indicating if the patch has been applied or not, in the debian/ dir. Since that dir gets blown away, the patch's unpatch routine never thinks that it was applied, and so the unpatching never happens. And then, of course, when I go to do another build, it thinks it needs to apply the patch, but of course fails because the patch is already applied. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22.1-van1 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages kernel-package depends on: ii dpkg 1.14.5 package maintenance system for Deb ii dpkg-dev 1.14.5 package building tools for Debian ii file 4.21-2 Determines file type using "magic" ii gcc [c-compiler] 4:4.1.1-15 The GNU C compiler ii gcc-4.1 [c-compiler] 4.1.2-13 The GNU C compiler ii gettext 0.16.1-2 GNU Internationalization utilities ii make 3.81-3 The GNU version of the "make" util ii perl 5.8.8-7 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii po-debconf 1.0.9 manage translated Debconf template Versions of packages kernel-package recommends: ii bzip2 1.0.3-7 high-quality block-sorting file co ii libc6-dev [libc-dev] 2.6-2 GNU C Library: Development Librari -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
