I have tested this patch. It builds fine for arm with the following
command:
fakeroot make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- deb-pkg
However x86_64 fails (when using an i386 machine).
fakeroot make ARCH=x86_64 deb-pkg
The error occurs in scripts/package/builddeb
+ forcearch=-DArchitecture=amd64
+ dpkg-gencontrol -isp -DArchitecture=amd64 -plinux-headers-2.6.39-rc7+
-P/opt/kernel-linus/linux-2.6/debian/hdrtmp
dpkg-gencontrol: error: current host architecture 'i386' does not appear
in package's architecture list (amd64)
The debian/control file is as follows:
cat debian/control
Source: linux-upstream
Section: kernel
Priority: optional
Maintainer: Anonymous <root@robert-VGN-Z690Y>
Standards-Version: 3.8.4
Homepage: http://www.kernel.org/
Package: linux-image-2.6.39-rc7+
Provides: linux-image, linux-image-2.6, linux-modules-2.6.39-rc7+
Suggests: linux-firmware-image
Architecture: any
Description: Linux kernel, version 2.6.39-rc7+
This package contains the Linux kernel, modules and corresponding other
files, version: 2.6.39-rc7+.
Package: linux-headers-2.6.39-rc7+
Provides: linux-headers, linux-headers-2.6
Architecture: amd64
Description: Linux kernel headers for 2.6.39-rc7+ on amd64
This package provides kernel header files for 2.6.39-rc7+ on amd64
.
This is useful for people who need to build external modules
The debian/control file for an unpatched scripts/package/builddeb would
assign 'i386' instead of 'amd64'.
Regards,
Robert
