# Script to build new Debian kernel packages for 2.6.33.1
#
# Caveats:
#
# Since kernel-package in debian-stable doesn't work with
# 2.6.33.1, we attempt to patch it in place. This may not be the
# right thing to do. A possibly better alternative is to install
# a later version of kernel-package, although that could potentially
# cause problems with upgrades, etc..
#
# The patch to tun.c is a workaround rather than a real fix.
#
# Building a full Debian kernel package with all drivers takes a long
# time, 60-80 minutes on my laptop.
#
# Re-running a make-kpkg may not work without running 'make-kpkg clean'

# Season to taste
# export PATH=/usr/lib/ccache:$PATH
