I can't find context, but: -- make-kpkg modules-image looks for directories in /usr/src/modules, and tries to build a third-party module from each of them; -- make-kpkg modules does the same, but also GPG-signs the result; -- you don't need to do either if you've just selected modules in the kernel configuration, since those modules wind up in the normal kernel-image package. It sounds like what's going on is that, at some point, you installed i2c-source and unpacked /usr/src/i2c.tar.gz, and now 'make-kpkg modules-image' is going off and building that. That's the expected behavior. If you don't want i2c or anything else in /usr/src, you're probably done. (ObUnstable: if you're running unstable, and trying to build i2c modules, you really really don't want i2c enabled in the kernel, at all.) -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
