Luis,

I just used 'git clone' to get a fresh copy of the repo. When I try 'make 
menuconfig', I get the following error:

finger@larrylap:~/backports/backport> make menuconfig
Generating local configuration database from kernel ...grep: .local-symbols: No 
such file or directory
  done.
Makefile.real:1: versions: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `versions'.  Stop.
make: *** [menuconfig] Error 2
finger@larrylap:~/backports/backport>

I have a copy of file 'versions' from a v3.10-rc1 tarball. When I copy that to 
backport/, then that message is fixed. I think file versions needs to be added 
to the repo.

After copying the file, I now get

finger@larrylap:~/backports/backport> make menuconfig
Kconfig:27: can't open file "net/wireless/Kconfig"
make[1]: *** [menuconfig] Error 1
make: *** [menuconfig] Error 2
finger@larrylap:~/backports/backport>

I have not yet figured out how to fix this one. My kernel source tree is good, 
and Kconfig matches the one in the tarball.

Thanks,

Larry
