Bug Description
Linux images on Ubuntu are called linux-images-
kernel-package (make-kpkg) creates kernel-
linux-source and run make-kpkg it will create kernel-
/usr/src/
kernel-image.
If u go along with kernel-image, and build modules they will depend on
kernel-
linux-image-2.6. So it will try to download linux-image-
should have kernel-image (kernel i would like to use) and linux-image from
Ubuntu (just to satisfy sl-modem-daemon package).
This would be avoided if make-kpkg would create linux-image package. So, if I
change debian/control in linux-source to create linux-image and build kernel,
make-kpkg would create linux-package-
sl-modem-source would't compile (if I use make-kpkg modules) couse it depends on
kernel-image package.
In the end, I needed to change debian/control in linux-source (rename every
"kernel-" with "linux-") and in sl-modem-source (same rename).
There is no patch, couse I don't know how many packages are broken this way.
Debian calls his kernel images packages as kernel-image. There are to solutions.
One is to rename and change all kernel packages to be called as:
kenel-image
kernel-source
kernel-doc etc.
or, fix every debian/control which is borken. I don't know how many broken
packages there is. sl-modem-source and linux-source* are just tip od the
iceberg, I think.
As explained in the make-kpkg documentation you need to set
the env variable STEM to set linux- or kernel-
