While grappling with getting kernel 2.4.21 to compile, I checked to be sure that the make-kpkg routine was accessing the patch-kernel files..
In the process of attempting various combinations of files, I found that run-parts was ignoring the proper script (run-parts /usr/src/kernel-patch/all/apply) which contained the file debian-2.4.21 After running various tests - even editing a copy of the file to where it only contained "#!/bin/bash" I finally renamed the file substituting a dash for each dot and bingo! it worked.. It seems that run-parts (at least mine (v 1.15 ) ignores any file with a dot in the name.. Is this a bug or something about my particular system? Apparently the maintainer of the kernel-patch package expected it to work, because the name of the file to be run was debian-2.4.21. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
