Subject: FTBFS: cannot build powerpc 2.6 kernels, missing rule for conf.vars

Package: kernel-package
Version: 8.120
Severity: serious
Justification: FTBFS


As said, i am not able to build the powerpc 2.6.10 kernel package with this,
while building it with my 8.119 + versioned script hack worked fine :

cd
/home/sven/debian/kernel/build/kernel-patch-powerpc-2.6.10-2.6.10/tmp/kernel-source-2.6.10;
