So the uClibc build script |
| 2 |
(/var/tmp/portage/uclibc-0.9.28/work/uClibc-0.9.28/extra/scripts/fix_includes.sh) |
| 3 |
tries to find UTS_RELEASE in include/linux/version.h |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
There are only 2 entries though, |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
#define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 132626 |
| 8 |
#define KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) (((a) << 16) + ((b) << 8) + (c)) |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
if you turn 132626 into hex it's 20612 ... does that correspond to 2.6.12 ? |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
My work-around was just to patch include/linux/version.h with |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
#define UTS_RELEASE "2.6.18" |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
However, in uClibc, the scripts should take into account the (newer?) |
| 17 |
LINUX_VERSION_CODE field. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Has anyone filed this as a bug? |
