RE: building 2.6.35



Okay I have a working solution and set of steps

Unfortunately I didn't keep the url where I got this. But it works, I have
to change the changelog to 2.6.35 instead of 2.6.34

======

How to build linux-kbuild-2.6 yourself

Fetch the sources from SVN:

svn co svn://svn.debian.org/kernel/dists/trunk/linux-kbuild-2.6
Then, fetch the vanilla kernel tarball (important: the 2.6.x version, no
2.6.x.y version):

wget http://ftp.de.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.27.tar.bz2
Now, you can prepare the package:

cd linux-kbuild-2.6
./debian/bin/genorig.py ../linux-2.6.27.tar.bz2
cd ..
tar xzf orig/linux-kbuild-2.6_2.6.27.orig.tar.gz
cd linux-kbuild-2.6-2.6.27/
cp -a ../linux-kbuild-2.6/* ./
./debian/bin/gencontrol.py
dch -i
Now adjust the version, and add a comment like "New upstream version" or
something, and build the package itself, after you installed eventually
missing build-dependencies:

make -f debian/rules clean
dpkg-checkbuilddeps
dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc
and you are done.
