I'm not sure who might be at fault.. but here's a snippet from my
/usr/share/kernel-package (My k-pkg version is 7.107 - later versions may
have this fixed, I don't know )
There are several variations to these directories, but this is the sequence
that applies to my situation...
ifeq ($(strip $(ALL_PATCH_DIR)),)
ALL_PATCH_DIR = $(shell if [ -d /usr/src/kernel-patches/all/ ]; \
then echo /usr/src/kernel-patches/all/ ;\
fi)
endif
... and...
ALL_PATCH_APPLY = $(ALL_PATCH_DIR)/apply
... later ...
if [ -n "$(VERSIONED_ALL_PATCH_DIR)" -a \
-d $(VERSIONED_ALL_PATCH_APPLY) ]; then \
run-parts --verbose $(VERSIONED_ALL_PATCH_APPLY); \
else \
true; \
fi
dlb@localhost:~$ ls -l /usr/src/kernel-patches/all/apply/
total 4
lrwxrwxrwx 1 dlb dlb 13 Jun 28 20:40 debian-2-4-21 ->
debian-2.4.21*
-rwxrwxr-x 1 root src 689 Jun 28 08:36 debian-2.4.21*
(debian-2-4-21 was my addition to make run-parts work)
