Unable to make file

Unable to make file

[Calvince Otieno]

Hello team!

I have a problem. I tried running the Make file and I got this error message:

make[3]: *** No rule to make target 'debian/canonical-certs.pem',
needed by 'certs/x509_certificate_list'.  Stop.

make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:480: certs] Error 2

make[1]: *** [/home/calvince/Documents/labs/git/kernels/staging/Makefile:1913:
.] Error 2

make: *** [Makefile:234: __sub-make] Error 2

This is discussed here:

You can just follow the instructions about removing the whole key thing:

This thread might help you :
lists.debian.org/debian-kernel/2016/04/msg00579.html. In the .config file
copied from /boot find and comment out the lines CONFIG_SYSTEM_TRUSTED_KEY
and CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_KEY. –

Then you can run make olddefconfig before trying again to compile.

This page has several suggestions:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/67670169/compiling-kernel-gives-error-no-rule-to-make-target-debian-certs-debian-uefi-ce

Maybe try:

scripts/config --disable SYSTEM_TRUSTED_KEYS
scripts/config --disable SYSTEM_REVOCATION_KEYS

If you need to keep your modules signed, you have to generate your own
certificate. See Documentation/admin-guide/module-signing.rst in the kernel
sources for how to do that.

Thanks.
