The debian patch package is incompatible to make-kpkg. See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=382699 I was sure I did send in the workaround for xen but can't see it in the BTS. So here we go again (CCing the bug). As a quick fix for xen do: mkdir /usr/src/kernel-patches/all/2.6.18/xen/ cat > /usr/src/kernel-patches/all/2.6.18/apply/xen <<EOF #!/bin/sh echo "Applying debian patch with xen parts" if [ -z "$KPKG_ARCH" ]; then KPKG_ARCH=$(dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_ARCH) fi /usr/src/kernel-patches/all/2.6.18/apply/debian --arch $KPKG_ARCH --subarch xen EOF cat > /usr/src/kernel-patches/all/2.6.18/unpatch/xen <<EOF #!/bin/sh set -e upstream="2.6.18" exec "/usr/src/kernel-patches/all/$upstream/apply/debian" "$upstream-0" EOF chmod a+x /usr/src/kernel-patches/all/2.6.18/apply/xen /usr/src/kernel-patches/all/2.6.18/unpatch/xen After that you can use make-kpkg --added-patches xen clean make-kpkg --added-patches xen kernel-image The same can be done for vserver and xen-vserver.
