Can you clarify this? I'm not sure the other people who replied understood
what you meant. Do you mean you would like a tool that goes through all
the steps of configuring, compiling, and packaging a kernel in a
systematic way, or that you would like make-kpkg (kernel-package, which
creates the deb file from the configured kernel source) to be easier to
use?
