I did give it a try, but i faced :
$ dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -us -uc
dpkg-buildpackage: source package is linux-modules-extra-2.6
dpkg-buildpackage: source version is 2.6.18-2
dpkg-buildpackage: source changed by Gaudenz Steinlin <gaudenz at debian.org>
dpkg-buildpackage: host architecture powerpc
dpkg-buildpackage: source version without epoch 2.6.18-2
dpkg-checkbuilddeps: error: cannot read control file debian/control: No such
file or directory
dpkg-buildpackage: Build dependencies/conflicts unsatisfied; aborting.
dpkg-buildpackage: (Use -d flag to override.)
sven at tael:~/debian/kernel/trunk/build/linux-modules-extra-2.6$ debian/rules
debian/control
debian/rules:5: /usr/src/linux-support-2.6.18-1/modules/rules.include: No
such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target
`/usr/src/linux-support-2.6.18-1/modules/rules.include'. Stop.
Which seems to indicate that there is something broken in the
linux-modules-extra-2.6 concept, since you need to have the dependencies
satisfied (i suppose) when building the debian/control, while at the same time
you cannot run dpkg-buildpackage to get the missing dependencies without the
debian/control file.
