Well this thing really blew my spare Sunday... :(
I'm trying to create a debian kernel package using make-kpkg.
I can compile the kernel without using the debian tool. But since I like
the package system I wanted to create a package of my custom kernel.
But I'm not able to do so. I constantly get the message:
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.20'
/usr/bin/make -f ./debian/rules dummy_do_dep
Use of uninitialized value in pattern match (m//) at
/usr/share/kernel-package/kpkg-vercheck line 76 (#1)
(W uninitialized) An undefined value was used as if it were already
defined. It was interpreted as a "" or a 0, but maybe it was a
mistake.
To suppress this warning assign a defined value to your variables.
To help you figure out what was undefined, perl tells you what
operation
you used the undefined value in. Note, however, that perl
optimizes your
program and the operation displayed in the warning may not necessarily
appear literally in your program. For example, "that $foo" is
usually optimized into "that " . $foo, and the warning will refer to
the concatenation (.) operator, even though there is no . in your
program.

i read the README but it doens't help. I'm now redeeming my RPM time.
Can anyone help me. I used to build kernelpackages on potato with no
problem (using unstable now).
Arnaud.
