Ahh, right. I never thought of it like that. Perhaps a more elegant solution would be to test wether EXTRAVERSION were set or not, and then automatically add a "-" instead.
if [ -z $EXTRAVERSION ] ; then KERNELRELEASE=$(VERSION).$(PATCHLEVEL).$(SUBLEVEL) else KERNELRELEASE=$(VERSION).$(PATCHLEVEL).$(SUBLEVEL)-$(EXTRAVERSION) fi
Something like that... Just an idea...
Take care, TTYL
