Package: debian-reference-en Version: 1.08-3 Severity: normal In chapter 3.2 "Bash configuration", there is a link to several example scripts. In script _bash_profile there is the following line that sets CDPATH env var:
CDPATH=$HOME:/usr/share/doc:/usr/local As it is defined it will break kernel 2.6 compilation with the following error: HOSTCC drivers/pci/gen-devlist DEVLIST drivers/pci/devlist.h /bin/sh: line 0: cd: drivers/pci: No such file or directory /bin/sh: ./gen-devlist: No such file or directory make[2]: *** [drivers/pci/devlist.h] Error 127 make[1]: *** [drivers/pci] Error 2 make: *** [drivers] Error 2 The error is repeatable at will. To avoid this breakage, CDPATH must be defined to look also in the current directory, like this: CDPATH=.:$HOME:/usr/local:/usr/share/doc -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-2-686 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages debian-reference-en depends on: ii debian-reference-common 1.08-3 Debian system administration guide -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
