That is very helpful. Thanks.

We'll get a new version based on Debian version 11 built as soon as possible.

So I did:

# diff /usr/lib/os-release os-release_200204_21_5.orig
2a3,5
> VERSION_ID="4"
> VERSION="4 (chimaera/ceres)"
> VERSION_CODENAME=chimaera/ceres
#

and I can confirm that the kernel compiles correctly.

$ make -j4 deb-pkg
  UPD     include/config/kernel.release
make clean
sh ./scripts/package/mkdebian

The problem appear to be solved with the new changes in base-files.

Matheu,

Thanks for this.

Actually, I think we might just need to merge in Debian's base-files 11.0. It
has dropped all the VERSION, VERSION_ID and CODENAME headers from
/etc/os-release. See
https://tracker.debian.org/media/packages/b/base-files/changelog-11

That makes lsb_release -cs return 'n/a' which is an expected and handled case.

Are you able to remove VERSION, VERSION_ID and CODENAME and verify that the
kernel builds successfully?

Thanks

Mark

We're in KERNEL_SRC_ROOT/ and we are compiling linux-stable, like so:

$ make j4 deb-pkg

  HOSTCC  scripts/kconfig/conf.o
  HOSTLD  scripts/kconfig/conf
scripts/kconfig/conf  --syncconfig Kconfig
  UPD     include/config/kernel.release
make clean
sh ./scripts/package/mkdebian
  TAR     linux-5.5.0+.tar.gz
origversion=$(dpkg-parsechangelog -SVersion |sed 's/-[^-]*$//');\
	mv linux-5.5.0+.tar.gz ../linux-5.5.0+_${origversion}.orig.tar.gz
dpkg-parsechangelog: warning:     debian/changelog(l2): found end of file where expected first heading
dpkg-parsechangelog: error: fatal error occurred while parsing debian/changelog
dpkg-buildpackage -r"fakeroot -u" -a$(cat debian/arch)  -i.git -us -uc
dpkg-buildpackage: warning:     debian/changelog(l2): found end of file where expected first heading
dpkg-buildpackage: error: fatal error occurred while parsing debian/changelog
make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.package:77: deb-pkg] Error 25
make: *** [Makefile:1427: deb-pkg] Error 2
sed 's$lsb_release -cs$lsb_release -cs |cut -d -f2/$' scripts/package/mkdebian  | grep -A1 dpkg-parsechang

It results in the above error.

The issue is with the lsb_release, or the kernel folks should accept the
second field to have a '/'... and change the mkdebian file accordingly.

$ lsb_release -cs
chimaera/ceres
$
does not work with the kernel.

The workaround is to insert '| cut -d/ -f2' into KERNEL_SRC_ROOT/scripts/package/mkdebian .

$ sed -i 's$lsb_release -cs$lsb_release -cs |cut -d/ -f2$' scripts/package/mkdebian

which will result in:

127c127
< elif distribution=$(lsb_release -cs |cut -d/ -f2 2>/dev/null) && [ -n "$distribution" ] && [ "$distribution" != "n/a" ]; then
---
> elif distribution=$(lsb_release -cs 2>/dev/null) && [ -n "$distribution" ] && [ "$distribution" != "n/a" ]; then

and then the compilation is OK.

Such as:

make clean
sh ./scripts/package/mkdebian
  TAR     linux-5.5.0+.tar.gz
origversion=$(dpkg-parsechangelog -SVersion |sed 's/-[^-]*$//');\
        mv linux-5.5.0+.tar.gz ../linux-5.5.0+_${origversion}.orig.tar.gz

thank you for the report, could you help us discard a couple 
theories?

1. You are not running beowulf but ceres/sid.
   For this please show us your full sources.list as it'll be very 
   helpful
2. There is an issue with your ${KERNEL_SOURCE}/debian/changelog
   For this please show us your ${KERNEL_SOURCE}/debian/changelog

   Notice that ${KERNEL_SOURCE} is exactly the directory where you 
   are running make
   ON my system, this gets modified automatically with something 
   like:

   linux-5.4.8 (5.4.8-1) beowulf; urgency=low

      * Custom built Linux kernel.

    -- evilham <evilham@FQDN>  Fri, 24 Jan 2020 01:07:37 +0100

FTR: My stock-kernel build of 5.4.8 finishes without issues on 
Devuan beowulf with base-files 10.3-devuan3.2 (the intended 
version on -proposed), so I can't really confirm that there is a 
general issue atm.

Cheers,

There might be. In particular 10.3+devuan4 is not suitable for beowulf, it is
for chimaera/ceres. For beowulf you need 10.3+devuan3.2 which is in
beowulf-proposed.

Can you see if it still an issue with the correct beowulf version?

Thanks

Mark

Arthur,

Looking at this again.

This implies there is something wrong with the debian/changelog in the kernel
src root. Are you sure it is formatted correctly? What does dpkg-parsechangelog
produce?

Hi, I'm not sure which debian/changeling the diff applies to (I tried decom=

a change of behaviour), but am still mystified as to what change in base-fi=
les 10=2E3+devuan4 from base-files 10=2E3+devuan3=2E1 could cause a kernel =

Arthur,

Thanks for this.

First, your email was misaddressed hence the delay.

Could you confirm whether you are using beowulf or ceres?

If you are on beowulf please try base-files version 10.3+devuan3.2
which is in beowulf-proposed.

Thanks.

Mark

Package: base-files
Version: 10.3+devuan3.1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?

Upgrading to base-files 10.3+devuan4

running 

make -j2 menuconfig bindeb-pkg

on the linux kernel produces output like:

sh ./scripts/package/mkdebian
dpkg-buildpackage -r"fakeroot -u" -a$(cat debian/arch)  -b -nc -uc
dpkg-buildpackage: warning:     debian/changelog(l2): found end of file where expected first heading
dpkg-buildpackage: error: fatal error occurred while parsing debian/changelog
make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.package:83: bindeb-pkg] Error 255
make[1]: *** [Makefile:1427: bindeb-pkg] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:326: __build_one_by_one] Error 2


   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

Downgrading to 10.3+devuan3.1

   * What was the outcome of this action?
   * What outcome did you expect instead?

*** End of the template - remove these template lines ***
