| |
I recently went and got the 2.1.92pre1 off of ftp.kernel.org, did a mv 2.1.91 2.1.92, and applied the patch. Did a make clean, and then tried make zImage. I then noticed the bug.
A previous make dep(2.1.91) had stored the absolute directory into the depends files. I think that this is wrong. It should be relative. Make dep should have to be run, if I just move a directory.
You could say that make dep should be run after every kernel patch, and I would agree. But, if a directory was moved, and no patch applied, then this bug would still appear.
