Package: nvidia-kernel-source
Version: 169.12-4
Severity: normal
In the latest 2 versions, the xen and other patches seem to be applied
in the wrong direction. This is from a fresh rm -rf modules/ ; tar
xvf ... ; make-kpkg clean .... with both the clean and configure
steps wanting to apply the patch in the wrong direction. If I confirm
both the clean and configure patches to assume -R, then it builds
successfully (otherwise it bails because the patch step has failed).
Then because the patch has then been reversed by the time configure
finishes, the actual build of the binary modules will want to apply
the patch in the direction given, without assuming -R. Haven't
verified whether it runs yet.
