Not in a vanilla kernel tree, I didn't dream of .deb support being
included upstream. Is there any documentation about which features are
available? For this to be a make-kpkg replacement, I'd need the
possibility to run the actual build process as non-root user while
using fakeroot to build the .deb, append a string to the version
number and a debian revision.
Greetings
