Hi, A dependency on bc was added at some point during the 3.9 development. My machines runs a git forest which contains both stable and Torvalds mainline. So any kernel version is only a: git fetch --all && git checkout <tag> away When switching from v3.8.5 to v3.9-rc7 i ran in to a odd thing. It seemed to build fine, make install and modules_install was all fine as well but rebooting revealed that 3.8.5 had been installed again instead. Doing make clean and rebuilding revealed that I was missing bc ;) I have tried to find exactly where it's run since then, i have found the cmd_bc section but not found what triggers it... Due to lack of time and energy, I hearby report this bug! This is about as far as i got: kernel/Makefile:135:quiet_cmd_bc = BC $@ kernel/Makefile:136: cmd_bc = bc -q $(filter-out FORCE,$^) > $@ Is there any detaled information and or instructions on kbuild btw? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kbuild" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
