Hi,
/var/lib/dkms/iscsitarget/1.4.20.3+svn490/build/kernel/config.c:51:7:error:
dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
That's not a warning.
I found similar bugs for different drivers. It looks like some function the
driver uses has gone away. I could be wrong about that though.

This seems to have been happening lately because all warnings are treated as
failures for Jessie. I have other packages too that are failing. I haven't had
time to look into this, but the fix would be to export CFLAGS variable, adding
the warning flags there, or else fix every gcc warning..
