Hi, I had been trying to build DDE packages for Arch Hurd for a while, and after some discussion in #hurd, we found that in hurd/incubator.git, commit fb489ff7a7989b85ae4f3c1deaf5dbf816de6545 , "drop generated files", prevents building from source. If I add 'git revert --no-edit fb489ff' to our build scripts, everything builds correctly (and the ne2k_pci driver, at least, works)
I don't know enough about the patch to intelligently comment on it aside from that, but I just wanted to report this issue. Thanks, Stephen Gilles
