I've seen quite a few references to this with google, I haven't seen a
solution. The problem is making a stock kernel with 'make rpm' on a
redhat 9 system. Redhat has done something to rpm with version 9 that
is causing it to create a debug package for every package you make.
Unfortunately whatever it's doing is busted for stock kernels.
I've been unable to find a way to turn off this generation. There is
a variable %_enable_debug_packages 1 in the redhat macros, I've turned
it off, but that hasn't helped.
So, how do I disable this 'feature'? Does anyone know?

Yep .. all -b switches have been moved from rpm to rpmbuild.
So if you edit the Makefile, replacing call of "rpm" with "rpmbuild" it
works.

Twas FORTRAN as the doloop goes
Did logzerneg the ifthen block
All kludgy were the function flows
And subroutines adhoc.
Beware the runtime-bug my friend
squrooneg, the false goto
Beware the infiniteloop
And shun the inprectoo.
