I've no idea why that should be, but you > probably need to fix that first. The kernel udeb configuration for alpha was broken some time before we moved it into the linux package. Once it was moved into the linux package, this broke kernel building as well. You could try reverting this to get a starting point for fixing the alpha udebs: --- r18249 | benh | 2011-11-12 22:51:36 -0800 (Sat, 12 Nov 2011) | 1 line [alpha] Remove old, broken udeb configuration --- Ben. -- Ben Hutchings If you seem to know what you are doing, you'll be given more to do.
