Description

With linux-2.6.18.1, following the lfs-development book, in section 5.5.1 (kernel headers), I get this: 

$ make headers_check
  CHK     include/linux/version.h
  UPD     include/linux/version.h
  HOSTCC  scripts/unifdef
/bin/sh: scripts/basic/fixdep: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [scripts/unifdef] Error 1
make: *** [headers_install] Error 2

I think we need to run "make defconfig" before "make headers_check".

I don't get that error on my builds (x86). The unifdef patch makes unifdef depend on scripts/basic which has fixedep.c in it that should be compiled to fixdep. I know the patch needs to be slightly amended to apply to the 2.6.18.1 tarball. See the attached patch.

You're right. The patch I made was no good.
