Package: kernel-package
Version: 11.001
Followup-For: Bug #423721
Hi All
Similar to #390924 the compile completely fails with git kernels as
long as LOCALVERSION_AUTO is turned on. But other than on #390924 the
fail does no seem to have anything to do with GREP_OPTIONS in the
user's environment being exported.
For example, having disabled in a rather fresh git tree
CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO the compile will finish cleanly in an
environment where GREP_OPTIONS are exported like so:
env | grep -i grep
GREP_COLOR=31
GREP_OPTIONS=--color=auto
In the same xterm, with the env values from above, I can successfully
compile a git-kernel, as long as I have CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO
switched off.
The kernel where this worked:
---------
git branch -v
* master fd0b45d Merge
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-2.6
-----------
Output "head -6 Makefile" in the tree where the compile worked:
-----------
$ head -6 Makefile
VERSION = 2
PATCHLEVEL = 6
SUBLEVEL = 24
EXTRAVERSION = -rc7
NAME = Arr Matey! A Hairy Bilge Rat!
------------
The command used for the build:
time MAKEFLAGS="CC=gcc-4.1" fakeroot make-kpkg
--append-to-version=-2008.01.10.a --revision +2nd.no.localversion+env.with.grep
kernel_image
Result, IINM:
linux-image-2.6.24-rc7-2008.01.10.a_+2nd.no.localversion+env.with.grep_powerpc.deb
As soon as I switch on CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO in the kernel .config,
the deb kernel package build will fail with errors similar to the ones
below: and it does not seem to matter whether GREP_OPTIONS are
exported or not:

Please correct this.

-------------------------
Interestingly enough this .deb build fail did not always seem to
happen with CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO turned on:
This package:
linux-image-2.6.18-rc4-060811-dirty_2.6.18-rc4-060811-dirty-10.00.Custom_powerpc.deb
was built in August 2006 with CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO=y ... :)
We had a small discussion on the subject on the powerpc list over the
last hours, with a few more details, hopefully:
"make-kpkg "utsrelease.h ... does not match current version"
http://lists.debian.org/debian-powerpc/2008/01/threads.html#00027
Please let me know if you need more information.
Best Regards
Wolfgang
