Binary package hint: kernel-package

Hi!

I tried to build a kernel-image on edgy with make xconfig and "make-kpkg". (around september 10th)

This error occured:
[code]
#make-kpkg kernel_image kernel_modules kernel_headers
 (...)
 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.15.6'
 ====== making target stamp-kernel-image [new prereqs: linux-image-2.6.15.6 linux -image-2.6.15.6]======
 echo done > stamp-kernel-image
 ====== making target kernel_image [new prereqs: stamp-configure stamp-build-kern el stamp-kernel-image]======
 The UTS Release version in include/linux/version.h
 "2.6.15.6"
 does not match current version:
 "2.6.15.6"
 Please correct this.
[/code]

(don't mind with the old kernel version, I got this error from a debian forum, because I can't copy&paste my own error message. But it was exactly the same.)

However, this error occurs at the end of make-kpkg, very frustrating ;)

Then I found out, that this bug is already registered at Debian:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=355147

I'm an advanced newbie (so to say) and maybe I did mess something up with the version string myself. But I tried it several times, to make sure the bug is in the package and not behind the keyboard ;)

I also installed build-essentials libqt3-mt-dev etc. to build this kernel.

Then I got an version auf "kernel-package" vom Debian unstable and installed it with dpkg -i. Same error.
So don't know exactly, just want to report this.

Regards,
Chris
