πŸ’– KERNEL-WEDGE-BUILD-ARCH(1) πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the General Commands Manual page for kernel-wedge-build-arch β€” yes that's a mouthful, we're gonna get through it together 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

kernel-wedge-build-arch β€” build udebs for a single architecture πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

kernel-wedge build-arch architecture

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so this is a wrapper script whose whole entire job is to build one specific architecture. main character energy, but for a single arch only πŸ’…

It takes the architecture you wanna build as its parameter, and lowkey important: that architecture needs to be listed in kernel-versions. no listing, no building, that's the vibe check ✨

It also expects to have the unpacked kernel packages for that architecture sitting in, like, ../alpha (that's the example, not a promise β€” swap in your actual arch name). And the modules.dep files have to be put in there too if they're not shipped in the .deb β€” and that part varies, so like, it depends πŸ™ˆ

heads up bestie: dpkg-cross must be installed. Not optional, not "eh maybe", it's a hard requirement. BUT β€” and this is the slay part β€” you do NOT need a cross compiler. iconic. no cap πŸ”₯
