Well, you have to show why this is a bug here. I see none, so I'm
merging the two.

I was not able to build it at all.

Okay, problems I read out of that:
- SUBDIRS= is deprecated, use M=.
- Never ever override CPP or CC for Debian provided kernels.

Excerpt from hand-build:
| $ ./configure --with-build=/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build
[...]
| $ make
[...]
| make -C /lib/modules/2.6.31-trunk-amd64/source SUBDIRS=/tmp/source/modules/alsa-driver CPP="gcc -E" CC="gcc" modules
| make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.31-trunk-common'
|
| ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid.
| include/linux/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing.
| Run 'make oldconfig && make prepare' on kernel src to fix it.
|
|
| WARNING: Symbol version dump /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.31-trunk-common/Module.symvers
| is missing; modules will have no dependencies and modversions.
|
| find: `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.31-trunk-common/alsa-kernel/': No such file or directory

So it also ignores the provided tree.

Setting to grave as modules have to work against Debian kernels.

Competence is shown in cooperation. It seems, you need much more
experience to do so.

Why did you closed #552203? Did you perform a professional solution?

Have a nice sunday ;)

Please don't lecture me about cooperation. Cooperation does not mean
solving all the problems people present to you, in the way that they
want.

I was mistaken about the assignment of that bug. I have reopened it.

This is not so easy when there are hundreds of other bugs to look at.
