While building the SUSE kernel packages, which build the scripts, make clean, and then build everything, we have been running into spurious build failures. We tracked them down to a simple dependency issue:
$ make mrproper CLEAN arch/x86/tools CLEAN scripts/basic $ cp patches/config/x86_64/desktop .config $ make archscripts HOSTCC arch/x86/tools/relocs /bin/sh: scripts/basic/fixdep: No such file or directory make[3]: *** [arch/x86/tools/relocs] Error 1 make[2]: *** [archscripts] Error 2 make[1]: *** [sub-make] Error 2 make: *** [all] Error 2 This was introduced by commit 6520fe55 (x86, realmode: 16-bit real-mode code support for relocs), which added the archscripts dependency to archprepare. This patch adds the scripts_basic dependency to the x86 archscripts.
