This is a known problem of 2.01 when trying to apply it on Debian kernel sources - it will only work on vanilla kernels. Updating to 2.04-3 (from unstable) should solve the problem. Backporting it should be relatively easy since I always try to compile in on woody too (I need it myself on woody). You will only need current debhelper and debconf stuff.

In fact, here it is - | it's very short: Yes, it is, and for some cases not even complete :) The quickest way to solve this is to rm /usr/src/kernel-patches/all/freeswan/linux/net/Makefile.fs2_4.ipsec_alg.patch touch /usr/src/kernel-patches/all/freeswan/linux/net/Makefile.fs2_4.ipsec_alg.patch
Then the make-kpkg debian will apply the freeswan patch correctly. After that, manually edit net/Makefile and add the line mod-subdirs += ipsec after mod-subdirs := ..... <whatever> ....
The reason why the patch doesn't apply cleanly on Debian kernel is because of this line, which is different from the vanilla kernels.

Hope this helps, Rene -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Debian - http://enigmail.mozdev.org
