make-kpkg debian/rules:1637: *** Error.
Hello,
Got a Wacom tablet (For Christmas) and the latest driver
from the Wacom Project.
This then required pulling in packages from unstable to
satify dependencies.
Now, make-kpkg is broke.
Even make-kpkg clean gives the error shown below.
Still need to compile and install the new binary module for
my custom kernel.
Have 15 files of notes but don't know what to print here.
The enviorment can be changed, but don't know what is
correct.
Links were updated but not sure if they are all correct.
The dpkg error says to specify a subarch.
The docs say not to or it will think you are tring to
cross-compile.
Alsa and nvidia modules were added before this "upgrade"
without problems.
This seems to be an unusual problem and way over my head.
Thank you for your time reviewing this.
Brent
My System:

Error:
debian/rules:1637: *** Error. I do not know where the
kernel image goes to [kimagedest undefined]
The usual case for this is that I could not determine
which arch or subarch tihs machine belongs to.
Please specify a subarch, and try again.. Stop.
History:
Before upgrading got this warning below. Read it was a
bug so upgraded dpkg.
dpkg-architecture: warning: Unknown gcc system type
i486-linux-gnu, falling back to defau
lt (native compilation)
dpkg-architecture: warning: Specified GNU system type
i386-linux does not match gcc syste
m type i486-linux-gnu.
Thanks again for your time.
