Package: kernel-package Version: 13.013 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? Attempting to build kernel 3.15 from original Kernel.org tar using the following command fails. It appears as though output from Make is being assigned to PATCHLEVEL, SUBLEVEL, EXTRAVERSION and LOCALVERSION. fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd --revision=1 --append-to-version '-beast' --arch-in-name -j 8 buildpackage The relevant output lines seem to be: debian/ruleset/misc/version_vars.mk:161: *** Error.
