Package: installation-guide-i386 Version: 20070319 Severity: normal The statement To compile a kernel the Debian way, you need some packages: fakeroot, kernel-package, linux-source-2.6 and a few others which are probably already installed (see /usr/share/doc/kernel-package/README.gz for the complete list).
appeared to me quite a bit misleading. I had to install quite more packages. The documentation in /usr/share/kernel-package/doc/README mentions gcc, libc6-dev, bin86, ncursesX.X-dev, libqt3-mt-dev, g++, libglade2-dev, binutils, make, module-init-tools, awk, gzip, shellutils, grep. Most of them have not been installed already. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
