Package: kernel-package Version: 13.018+nmu1 Followup-For: Bug #890817 Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** * What led up to the situation? Correction to previous email - it appears that a change to Kconfig (re) triggered the hang. I created a patch to revert the commit that was listed above, then things proceeded fine until I reached the 4.16-rc5 kernel and it appeared as 4.16-rc5+. I reversed that patch, then re-ran make-kpkg and still produced a 4.16-rc5+ labelled kernel. I then did: git diff git pull neither of which gave any output. I then checked on github.com that the rc5 commit was still the most recent commit. Then, when I re-ran make-kpkg, it produced a kernel labelled 4.16-rc5 It looks like I will have to re-apply the patch that reverses the problem commit to avoid future hangs, then when a labelled commit appears (e.g. 4.16-rc6 or v4.16) reverse the patch mentioned above, and run git diff git pull to get the kernel produced by make-kpkg to not have a (+) at the end of the version. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? * What was the outcome of this action? * What outcome did you expect instead? *** End of the template - remove these template lines *** -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers experimental APT policy: (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.16.0-rc4+ (SMP w/4 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE= (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages kernel-package depends on: ii bc 1.07.1-1 ii binutils 2.30-7 ii build-essential 12.4 ii bzip2 1.0.6-8.1 ii dpkg-dev 1.19.0.5 ii file 1:5.32-2 ii gettext 0.19.8.1-4 ii kmod 25-1 ii po-debconf 1.0.20 ii xmlto 0.0.28-2 ii xz-utils [lzma] 5.2.2-1.3 Versions of packages kernel-package recommends: ii cpio 2.12+dfsg-6 ii docbook-utils 0.6.14-3.3 ii kernel-common 13.018+nmu1 pn uboot-mkimage <none> Versions of packages kernel-package suggests: ii libncurses5-dev [libncurses-dev] 6.1-1 pn linux-source <none> -- Configuration Files: /etc/kernel-pkg.conf changed: maintainer := Arthur Marsh email := arthur.ma...@internode.on.net priority := Low -- no debconf information
