plus sign in extraversion
 
Hello

I downloaded the kernel, applied a patch and then compiled it. Everything works fine.

But there is an extra plus sign at the end of extraversion: "3.2.9-kl5+" /I read somewhere it basically means that my git tree is modified./

How can I get rid of the plus sign?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I guess you can use
Code:

make LOCALVERSION=""
to build your kernel.

Regards

Thanks bathory.

Meanwhile I've found two other solutions:
-commit the changes ang create a tag object
-edit the end of the setlocalversion script /can't believe I missed that part before posting/
