Subject: Repair .hdepend file?
Using RedHat 7.1 I have begun experimenting with the process of building a
new kernel. I have not tried to install it yet, just using the make commands.

Today when I try it, I get an error no matter what make command I issue. The
error is:

/lib/modules/2.4.2-2/build/.hdepend:1983: *** unterminated call to function
'wildcard': missing ')'. Stop.

I looked at .hdepend. The offending line is the last line of the file and
ends in '/q' instead of a ')'. I did not simply put a closing parentesis in
place because for all I know the file was truncated and is missing even more
stuff. The line is:

$(wildcard /usr/src/linux-2.4.2/include/config/q

How do I accurately repair or regenerate or re-install this file?
