Hello All,
I has been using http://linuxtv.org/hg/~endriss/media_build_experimental for quite some time now. Until recently I never encountered a problem. Now I can't build any more:
make -C /home/matthias/tmp/media_build_experimental/v4l make[1]: Entering directory '/home/matthias/tmp/media_build_experimental/v4l' scripts/make_makefile.pl ./scripts/make_myconfig.pl perl scripts/make_config_compat.pl /lib/modules/3.16.0-4-amd64/source ./.myconfig ./config-compat.h creating symbolic links... xargs: ln: Too many levels of symbolic links
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Makefile:264: recipe for target 'links' failed make[1]: *** [links] Error 126 make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/matthias/tmp/media_build_experimental/v4l' Makefile:28: recipe for target 'all' failed make: *** [all] Error 2 build failed at ./build line 491.
I am using Debian stable with Kernel 3.16.0-4-amd64. Some hundreds maybe thousands of symlinks are being created where the build fails.
Any solution or hint would be highly appreciated.
Best regards
Matthias
