Package: kernel-package
Version: 10.062
Severity: normal
I set about compiling a 2.6.18 kernel today, and when I went to
make-kpkg ... modules_image I got an error message about dh_testdir not
being present. As I had compiled modules before, I thought I had
everything here I needed. Installing debhelper allowed me to compile
the modules. I probably had debhelper here before, and it somehow got
dropped in some upgrade. Anyway, I would think that kernel-package
probably should require debhelper.

Hi,
kernel-package does not use, or need, debhelper, so this bug
is misplaced. Please file a bug against the module you were trying
to build (I would reassign it, but no log was provided).
