Hello,
I would like to rebuild a Debian kernel with an extra patch. I have
followed the instructions at
https://kernel-handbook.alioth.debian.org/ch-common-tasks.html#s-common-official:
$ apt-get source -t stretch linux
$ cd linux-4.9.30
$ perl -ipe 's/^debug-info: true/debug-info: false/g;' debian/config/amd64/defines
$ bash debian/bin/test-patches -f amd64 ~/in-progress/linux-4.10.0+alps/alps.diff
This seemed to work fine so far, but for some reason I did get debug
symbols as well:
$ dir ..
total 678M
drwxr-xr-x 25 nikratio nikratio 4.0K Sep 7 14:36 linux-4.9.30
-rw-r--r-- 1 nikratio nikratio 439K Sep 7 15:30 linux-headers-4.9.0-3-amd64_4.9.30-2+deb9u3a~test_amd64.deb
-rw-r--r-- 1 nikratio nikratio 546M Sep 7 15:47 linux-image-4.9.0-3-amd64-dbg_4.9.30-2+deb9u3a~test_amd64.deb
-rw-r--r-- 1 nikratio nikratio 37M Sep 7 15:38 linux-image-4.9.0-3-amd64_4.9.30-2+deb9u3a~test_amd64.deb
-rw-r--r-- 1 nikratio nikratio 91M Jun 18 14:55 linux_4.9.30.orig.tar.xz
-rw-r--r-- 1 nikratio nikratio 3.0M Aug 6 13:24 linux_4.9.30-2+deb9u3.debian.tar.xz
-rw-r--r-- 1 nikratio nikratio 121K Aug 6 13:24 linux_4.9.30-2+deb9u3.dsc
Do I need to do something else to omit building the -dbg package?
More important, however, I wasn't able to build the common headers
package. Following the instructions I get:
$ fakeroot make -f debian/rules.gen binary-arch_amd64_none_real
make: Nothing to be done for 'binary-arch_amd64_none_real'.
What do I have to do to get the -common header .deb?
Thanks!
-Nikolaus
