Kernelmodule build problem

I was asked to help create a list of Usenet news reader applications and news...

The command line I included in my previous post (one that I have used for ages) :

make-kpkg --appendtoversion "-own" clean; make-kpkg --appendtoversion "-own" kernelsource kernelheaders kernelmanual kernelimage modulesclean modulesimage

A look at the generated packages indicates that the following are generated :

So, I am guessing that this occurs after the kernelimage target is processed, and fails at modulesclean (which is what the error message in my post indicates).

To confirm this, I issued the following command :

make-kpkg --appendtoversion "-own" modulesclean modulesimage

Surprisingly, the error above went away. But a large majority of the modules failed to compile against this new kernel. Now, it is possible that that is happening because the kernel is new and has made some changes that the source packages have not yet incorporated, but the ghost error that seems to occur sometime before modulesclean and after generation of the kernel image is strange. I am buttuming that the target kernelimage concludes after the generation of the kernel image, but this above set of circumstances would seem to indicate that this is not the case.

Puzzling.
