When 'bootstrapping' a new kernel:
cp ../oldlinux/.config .
make oldconfig
make dep
...
/usr/src/linux/include/linux/udf_fs_sb.h:22: linux/version.h: No such file
or directory
For some reason, include/linux/version.h is not being built for this
procedure, however:
cp ../oldlinux/.config .
make menuconfig
make dep
works perfectly.
changing the Makefile rule for oldconfig thusly:
oldconfig: /include/linux/version.h symlinks
makes it nice and peachy.
Is there a reason that this is not done? ( also, xconfig, config are the
same as oldconfig....)

Something is terribly wrong with either your system tools or
this ".config" you are using.
If you cannot simply do:
cp arch/sparc64/defconfig .config
make oldconfig; make dep; make clean; make vmlinux; make modules
Then something is truly screwed on your machine. Watch
for other errors in the make logs if it fails. I have a
strange feeling that one of the make sub-shells died on
you or something.

Ignore it, the kernel build design is wrong. make dep is supposed to
pick up all dependencies on included files but, at the time make dep is
run, generated files have not been created yet. make dep issues lots
of spurious warning and error messages. The 2.5 makefile rewrite fixes
the design. This is not a failure condition, make dep keeps going.
I have no idea why udf_fs_sb.h includes versions.h, it does not use it.
I will follow up with the UDF group.

No, I send you and on the sparclinux list already a patch for
this 2 weeks ago. The problem is, that make dep will build at first
sparc specific programs (archdep) which needs linux/version.h, but
make dep does create linux/version.h only after building this tools. The
following patch solved the problem for me:

This will still fail with parallel builds. Better make the dependency of
archdep on version.h explicit.
