This program should be run in a linux kernel source top level directory. /usr/share/doc/kernel-package/Problems.gz contains a list of known problems. usage: make-kpkg [options] target [target ...] where options are: --help This message. --revision number The debian revision number. ([0-9][a-zA-Z.~+0-9]) (Must start with a digit) --append-to-version foo --append_to_version foo an additional kernel sub-version.

Does not work for targets binary, binary-indep, and binary-arch. --us This option is passed to dpkg-buildpackage, and directs that package not to sign the source. This is only relevant for the buildpackage target. --uc This option is passed to dpkg-buildpackage, and directs that package not to sign the changelog. This is only relevant for the buildpackage target. Option Format: The options may be shortened to the smallest unique string, and may be entered with either a - or a -- prefix, and you may use a space between an option string and a value.
