Bug List
21 January 1999
Michael Elizabeth Chastain, <mailto:mec@shout.net>
- If a variable has a value of "m" in the previous .config file,
and a type of bool in the Config script, then all the interpreters
get confused. This happens frequently when someone changes a
tristate option to a bool option and people in the field have
.config files with a value of 'm'. For example: CONFIG_PSMOUSE.
- CONFIG_MODVERSIONS has incorrect dependencies. If you have a
problem building the kernel, and you have CONFIG_MODVERSIONS turned
on, do a 'make dep' followed by 'make clean' before you try anything
else.
- 'make dep' uses multistage dependencies, so the .hdepend file contains
'touch' commands. As a result, building a kernel often touches files
in include/linux/*.h. This messes up CVS and other systems which like
to rely on file dates.
- 'make dep' fails for C files which include other C files, such as
drivers/cdrom/sbpcd2.c.
