So how do you tell make-kpkg to not clean everything for a recompilation of a same version kernel with only a tiny change in the config file?
Are you sure that tine change shall be propagated to the kernel that shall be built?
Reberto has mentioned 'do_clean := NO' method. Have you ever used it? If not, what you do you use to avoid unnecessary recompilations during tweaking of the config file?
No, that won't do it. The do_clean := NO ensures that the tree is not cleaned after the .deb is built.
The question is, what if I am fiddling with some feature and want to do a minor change to see if that fixes the problem. I shouldn't be made to do a complete recompile just because I made one single minor change. If you don't agree, you are ruining the pleasure of makefiles.
Exactly! It is actually quite strange that an obvious option doesn't exist to prevent *real* cleaning so that make utility is taken advantage of. make-kpkg has been around for quite a while. Surely the original author(s) thought about this issue. I wonder if I am actually missing something here.
