Package: linux-source-2.6
Severity: important

I compile my own kernel with kernel-package, but new 2.6.26 source fails at the 
very end of the compiling. I tried to compile from 2.6.30 source, but same
thing happens. Both kernel source came from official Debian mirror, they are
linux-source-2.6.xx packages. Perhaps other versions of source suffer of same 
problem, but I have not tested yet. 

When I type "fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd --revision=uxie.1.2 kernel_image"
the following error message is displayed:
=====================================CUT=======================================

I thought it was kernel-package bug, but investigating further I found it's 
likely to be a kernel source bug. Typing "fakeroot make all", everything goes
fine, producing many .o and .ko files. 

The problem arises when I type "fakeroot make deb-pkg", and the following error
message is printed:

It might be a bug in fakeroot, but I ruled it out compiling the kernel as the 
root user, and the same behavior has been detected. I changed ownerships and 
permissions of directory tree, but all attempts have been fruitless. 

That bug does not render the linux-source useless because I can make its tarball,
using the command "fakeroot make tarbz2-pkg". The resulting kernel image is 
installed without problem in my computer. Nevertheless this workaround is unsatisfactory for me, I preferred to make things in "Debian way" installing 
the kernel image like any normal .deb package. 

Thanks in advance.

Recommended usage is make deb-pkg :)

closing as not a linux-2.6 bug.
