Bug in kernel compilation section of the 'Installation Guide"



Against which package should a bug in the 'Installation Guide" be reported?

This debian-user@ post [1] highlights a bug in the make-kpkg
instructions on [2]. The bug's also present in the wheezy
documentation.

Even though the make-kpkg man page says "--revision number", it's not
clear that it has to start with a number. In fact, the option's
misnamed because it's the package version and not its revision (in the
Debian policy meaning) that's being set -  a fact that's more or less
acknowledged in the man page with "Changes the version number ...".
