[Openswan Users] kernel build error, version.o missing? second try...

[Nick Abbey]

Hi,


    I'm building a 2.4 custom kernel with KLIPS included.  I've downloaded
the 2.4.13 source from
http://www.openswan.org/download/openswan-2.4.13.tar.gz
and extracted it to /usr/src/openswan-2.4.13


I've also downloaded the nat-t and klips patches:

http://www.openswan.org/download/openswan-2.4.13.kernel-2.4-natt.patch.gz
http://www.openswan.org/download/openswan-2.4.13.kernel-2.4-klips.patch.gz

and extracted them to the location of my kernel code:
/usr/src/linux-2.4.27

both patches apply with no issue

I am able to select the relevant options for IPSEC in make manuconfig, but
whenever I try to build I get:

I noticed that in /usr/src/linux-2.4.27/net/ipsec/Makefile there is the
referece to the version.o on line 75 reads:

obj-y += version.o

all the lines above it reference other objects, each of which has a
corresponding .c file in /usr/src/linux-2.4.27/net/ipsec/

I thought maybe something was missing, so I started looking thru the
extracted openswan 2.4.13 files at /usr/src/openswan2.4.13/linux/net/ipsec/
and noticed that there's a version.in.c there.  I tried moving it to
/usr/src/linux-2.4.27/net/ipsec but still get the same error.  I'm thinking
of renaming it to version.c to see if I can compile then.

Am I on the right track?
Is there a better way?
Why is this error occurring and what can I do to avoid it?

Thanks in advance!
