insufficient dependencies in README for kernel sources

[pille]

while compiling ftp://pve.proxmox.com/sources/pve-kernel-2.6.24_2009-10-22.tar.gz
i noticed additional dependencies for builing that are missing in the README of that archive:

Compiling the kernel
--------------------

First, make sure you have all tools to compile the kernel:

> apt-get install build-essential git-core autotools-dev debhelper fakeroot libsdl-dev lintian

at least the packages unzip and libssl-dev are needed.

thanks, will add that to the readme.

Actually zip and unzip should be added to the base install itself or atleast during DAB install as when we build VMs using DAB, we need to unzip some archives.

 

[Ooops]

trying to compile the kernel sources pve-kernel-2.6.24_2009-10-22.tar.gz within a freshly installed proxmox VE 1.4 I ran into the unzip trap.
Discovering thread 13742, I installed unzip and libssl-dev .
Now make dies repeatable with

As llazzaro (thread t=2601) succeeds after installing texi2html, what may be my mistake?

try

# apt-get install quilt

Does that help?

Thanks! It helped to come on. The log-file grew more then 6 x.

Unmet build dependencies: libpci-dev

Isn't that a good hint?

 

[consultorpc]

As you can see above you need to install libpci-dev.

apt-get install libpci-dev
