Package: kernel-package Version: 8.132 Severity: wishlist
make-kpkg is annoying at times when you need to do a minor modification. I'll give an example. Say I'm configuring Framebuffer for my notebook and I enabled i810fb as a module. After compilation and rebooting into the new kernel I come to know that I need fbcon to be compiled statically into the kernel or vice versa. make-kpkg won't allow me to proceed with the package building without doing a make-kpkg clean. If make-kpkg is designed to do so, how can one enjoy the benefit of makefiles ? I suggest we could have a "make-kpkg clean-all" option which would clean every thing whereas "make-kpkg clean" would only be to do minor cleanups specific to package building on Debian.
