Package: mol-modules-source Version: 0.9.70-17 Severity: normal I tried to compile my linux kernel with mol modules, but I found that in a fakeroot environment it failed. I didn't payed too much attention to it as the mol drivers were a non-critical issue, but I thought of using them at a later time.
I am using for kernel compilation kernel-package (make-kpkg) in a folder in my home directory. After some attempts I have reached to the point that I think that I am doing everything right while the modules still do not compile. Error messages during module build attempt follow: -------------------------------------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/debian_work/packages/new/kernel/kernel-source-2.6.9$ fakeroot [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/debian_work/packages/new/kernel/kernel-source-2.6.9# make-kpkg --revision 13 --append-to-version -sleep-pbg4 modules for module in /usr/src/modules/mol ; do \ if test -d $module; then \ (cd $module; \ if ./debian/rules KVERS="2.6.9-sleep-pbg4" KSRC="/home/eddy/debian_work/packages/new/kernel/kernel-source-2.6.9" \ KMAINT="Unknown Kernel Package Maintainer" KEMAIL="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" \ KPKG_DEST_DIR="/home/eddy/debian_work/packages/new/kernel/kernel-source-2.6.9/.." \ KPKG_MAINTAINER="Unknown Kernel Package Maintainer" \ ARCH=ppc \ KPKG_EXTRAV_ARG="EXTRAVERSION=-sleep-pbg4" \ KDREV="13" kdist; then \ echo "Module $module processed fine"; \ else \ echo "Module $module failed."; \ if [ "X" != "X" ]; then \ echo "Perhaps $module does not understand --rootcmd?"; \ echo "If you see messages that indicate that it is not"; \ echo "in fact being built as root, please file a bug "; \ echo "against $module."; \ fi; \ echo "Hit return to Continue?"; \ read ans; \ fi; \ ); \ fi; \ done make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/modules/mol' dh_testdir /usr/bin/make make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/modules/mol' /usr/bin/make -C src/kmod make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/src/modules/mol/src/kmod' + Entering Linux mkdir: cannot create directory `../build': Permission denied make[4]: *** [make-relbuild] Error 1 make[3]: *** [sub-Linux-all] Error 2 make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/modules/mol/src/kmod' make[2]: [src/kmod] Error 2 (ignored) /usr/bin/make -C src/netdriver make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/src/modules/mol/src/netdriver' mkdir: cannot create directory `build': Permission denied make[3]: *** [setup-tree-common] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/modules/mol/src/netdriver' make[2]: [src/netdriver] Error 2 (ignored) make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/modules/mol' touch build-stamp touch: cannot touch `build-stamp': Permission denied make[1]: *** [build-stamp] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/modules/mol' Module /usr/src/modules/mol failed. Hit return to Continue? ----------------------------------------------------------------------- After this point It gets back to the bash prompt and there is no mol driver generated, of course. As the messages suggest, make is trying to work with the mol drivers at /usr/src/modules/mol, which is defenetly wrong. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (600, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) Kernel: Linux 2.6.9-sleep-pbg4 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages mol-modules-source depends on: ii gcc 4:3.3.5-3 The GNU C compiler ii libc6-dev 2.3.2.ds1-21 GNU C Library: Development Librari ii make 3.80-9 The GNU version of the "make" util -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
