Okay, it seems to work: - I had a PATCH_KERNEL=YES in my compilation script, instead of PATCH_THE_KERNEL - Anyway, it did not work anymore, whatever the value of --added-patches on the command line. - The debianlogo patch can be applied and un-applied without any problem, and it compiles. (For some unknown reason, sometimes it failed, when applying or unapplying... I had to re-untar the source to reverse the patch) - The 'right' solution is to add 'patch_the_kernel=YES' in /etc/kernel-pkg.conf. Now the patch is automatically unapplied in a 'make-kpkg clean', and applied when compiling.
The real question for me is why '--added-patches=debianlogo' is not enough. Is it some typo too obvious to be seen ? PATCHES=debianlogo nice -n 19 make-kpkg --append-to-version=$VERS --revision $2 --added-patches=$PATCHES kernel_image (And I have now to see if ALL patches are now applied or now, and if debianlogo is ok with a 2.4.21. ) -- Christophe Courtois - Ostwald, Alsace, France http://www.courtois.cc/ - Clé PGP : 0F33E837 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- "I called Linus at home to fix a problem on the latest kernel and he just hung up on me.
