make-kpkg and kernel-name

[Thomas Braun <thomas@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I'm using loop-aes  for quite a while now and have encounterd a small 
misfeature (I wouldn't call it a bug).
My box is running under debian woody. AfterI I build a new kernel (2.4.27) 
with, for example, "make-kpkg --append-to-version \-test kernel_image" and 
installing it I have the directory /lib/modules/2.4.27-test/.
After rebooting and selecting the nee kernel in grub, I change now to my 
loop-aes directory and execute make, /usr/src/linux points to the running 
kernel, he compiles the new loop.o modul but moves it 
to  /lib/modules/2.4.27/block/  instead of the right 
place /lib/modules/2.4.27-test/block/ . The Makefile also complains about the 
wrong version ("WARNING - THIS MODULE WILL NOT WORK WITH CURRENTLY RUNNING 
KERNEL") but infact I'm running the right kernel.
Of course I only have to move the module to the right place, but I think it's 
quite annyoing.

Thanks
Thomas Braun
