12:26 PM andypugh: Hi jepler: Are you about? I am trying to recall the source of the RPi kernel that we are using. I think that either you built it, or I did. And I am tending towards it being you.
01:06 PM jepler: andypugh: I recommended that you use one I built. The (non-git) source can be fetched with: dget -x http://www.linuxcnc.org/dists/buster/base/source/linux-4.19.71-rt24-v7l+_4.19.71-rt24-v7l+-4.dsc -- the git source is https://github.com/jepler/linux and I can transfer it into linuxcnc org if desired.
01:07 PM andypugh: I think that we are using yours. But there is a suggestion that there is a typo in the debian control file.
01:08 PM andypugh: But I couldn’t even find the file in your repo.
01:09 PM andypugh: https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/issues/1018#issuecomment-752642528
01:12 PM andypugh: I have so far failed to find that typo in any of the repositories I have looked at.
01:12 PM jepler: andypugh: https://github.com/jepler/linux/commit/f2a59ba90cd4185a6867a6a95714966b91e35305#diff-d6af3ac563c6fa8056f58828afff909ef5d94bf34bbce1f47ab5fdaa879c9d78
01:12 PM jepler: scripts in the git generate the control file
01:13 PM andypugh: That would explain my failure.
01:13 PM jepler: I'll transfer this repo into linuxcnc organization, which will let you work on it if you desire
01:14 PM andypugh: OK, thanks.
01:14 PM jepler: https://github.com/LinuxCNC/raspberrypi-linux
01:15 PM andypugh: Though I wonder if the easy answer is to edit the deb itself.
01:16 PM andypugh: (Also, if folk just download the Pi SD card image, the problem won’t arise)
01:16 PM jepler: I think you basically "make deb-pkg -j4" and come back in a couple of hours. I don't seem to have any notes.
01:16 PM jepler: yeah "upgrading" from an original rasspberbbb image (I can't spell it sorry) wasn't working. this typo _could_ be why.
01:17 PM jepler: as always, thank you for working on this!
01:17 PM andypugh: Yes, it does sound very much like a problem that I also found intractable. I think it’s a good spot on his part. But unlikely to actually affect many folk.
