Hi,

this ones costs me some hours. So here's a tip for those using (K)ubuntu Dapper (6.06 LTS) for building Kamikaze.
I needed to upgrade the "GNU Make 3.81beta4" to "GNU Make 3.81" otherwise "make package/compile" fails (so none of the *.ipk's are built). I've grabbed the make source tree from a Kubuntu-Feisty and recompiled that on Dapper to fix this.

* Verify the make version with "make -v"
* Ask a friend to "apt-get source make" on a recent (K)ubuntu
* transfer source tree to your Dapper system
* recompile with "dpkg-buildpackage"
* install resulting *.deb

Sorry for the above post. The make version isn't the culprit. I always compile with "make V=99" which stumles while generating ./tmp/info/ files (missing "Source-Makefile" lines. So simply doing a "make clean" and remake with "make" (no V=99) will do the job for me now. Did not happen under Feisty. Here are some diff lines:

diff -r brcm-2.4-err/tmp/info/.packageinfo-6tunnel brcm-2.4/tmp/info/.packageinfo-6tunnel
0a1
> Source-Makefile: package/6tunnel/Makefile
diff -r brcm-2.4-err/tmp/info/.packageinfo-acx brcm-2.4/tmp/info/.packageinfo-acx
0a1
> Source-Makefile: package/acx/Makefile
diff -r brcm-2.4-err/tmp/info/.packageinfo-acx-mac80211 brcm-2.4/tmp/info/.packageinfo-acx-mac80211
0a1
> Source-Makefile: package/acx-mac80211/Makefile
diff -r brcm-2.4-err/tmp/info/.packageinfo-admswconfig brcm-2.4/tmp/info/.packageinfo-admswconfig
0a1
> Source-Makefile: package/admswconfig/Makefile

Sorry to make such a fuss. The "nohup" command causes this. Filed a new Ticket #2381.

Building Kamikaze 7.07 is easy. I didn't needed to upgrade to 3.81 version of make on Ubuntu 6.06 LTS.

So, here is what I use to build Kamikaze 7.07 (with extra packages)  and webif2 from source:

cd ~
svn -q checkout https://svn.openwrt.org/openwrt/tags/kamikaze_7.07/ kamikaze_7.07/
svn -q checkout https://svn.openwrt.org/openwrt/packages/ kamikaze_7.07/feeds/packages/
svn -q checkout http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/xwrt/trunk/package/webif/ kamikaze_7.07/feeds/webif/
cd ~/kamikaze_7.07/package/
ln -sf ../feeds/packages/*/*/ .
ln -sf ../feeds/webif/ .
cd ~/kamikaze_7.07/
make menuconfig
make world

Sure, you can use 'make package/symlinks' but I prefer the manual way in this case to link to the extra packages.
