All of them fail. Unfortunately adding -v does not provide any
additional information.


find ../linux/drivers/media -name '*.[ch]' -type f -print0 | xargs -0n
255 ln -sfv --target-directory=.
xargs: ln: Zu viele Ebenen aus symbolischen Links


But I found a curious solution.
It works when I echo the xargs output and pipe it into sh.
So this patch resolves my problem:

        perl scripts/make_config_compat.pl $(SRCDIR) $(obj)/.myconfig

This is strange. Anyhow my VDR is up and running again.
Thanks for providing me a starting point to look at.


Best regards
