Hi folks,

I'm trying to compile 2.6.25 using
fakeroot make-kpkg clean
fakeroot make-kpkg modules-clean

The second command terminates with an error as follows:

echo "The UTS Release version in include/linux/version.h"; echo "
\"\" "; echo "does not match current version:"; echo " \"2.6.25\" ";
echo "Please correct this."; exit 2
The UTS Release version in include/linux/version.h
""
does not match current version:
"2.6.25"
Please correct this.
make: *** [modules-clean] Error 2

Any pointers here would be ful. What needs correcting?

tia,

b.

It might be a faq about kernel-package, and its documentation in
/user/share/doc/kernel-package/ might answer this

include/linux/version.h

Well there's no ..../src/linux/...... include/linux/version.h file.

There are no 2.6.25..../src/linux-header... files.

But there is
a /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-16-generic/include/linux/version.h
file containing:
#define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 132632
#define KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) (((a) << 16) << 8) + (c))

I assume that belongs to the current kernel.
Should there be a ....include/linux/version.h file in the
2.6.25 directory?

tia,

b.

if you follow the documentation of kernel-package then make-kpkg will
create it.

If no commands were executed in the 2.6.25 directory tree after creating
it by uncompressing the source tarball, then no make-kpkg clean commands
are needed to start.
