2.6.38-rc3 - make deb-pkg bombs out

2.6.38-rc3 - make deb-pkg bombs out

[John Stoffel]

I've been trying to do a 'make deb-pkg' on 2.6.38-rc? and not having
any luck.  I was going to report this error for -rc2, but saw -rc3
this morning so I grabbed it and tried it out.  

I can successfully build the kernel on x86_64 (Ubuntu 10.10 system,
dual core Athlon, 4gb RAM, current directory mounted via NFS), but
when I do:

  fakeroot make O=/var/tmp/build deb-pkg

it dies with the following error:

      INSTALL include/rdma (1 file)
      INSTALL include/scsi/fc (4 files)
      INSTALL include/scsi (3 files)
      INSTALL include/sound (8 files)
      INSTALL include/video (3 files)
      INSTALL include/xen (2 files)
      INSTALL include (0 file)
      INSTALL include/asm (56 files)
    find: `arch/x86/include': No such file or directory
    make[2]: *** [deb-pkg] Error 1
    make[1]: *** [deb-pkg] Error 2
    make: *** [sub-make] Error 2

Anyone got a hint on what the solution is?

John

Turns out the problem is with the "O=/var/tmp/build" since it works to
build the deb-pkg target in the current directory just fine, using the
same .config and same arguements.  

I guess I'll start to bisect this and see when it last worked.
Looking at the scripts/package/builddeb script, it just needs to be
updated to use the O=/some/path in the find command.  I think.  But I
don't know the build system at all.

Thanks,
John

Hi John,

I submitted a patch that fix this problem on January 24th.

http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-kbuild/msg04131.html

Despite a Tested-by: and an Acked-by:, this patch apparently didn't reach main line until now.

	Nicolas.

Thanks for the quick reply.  I'm doing a test build now, but I suspect
it will work just fine.
