[arch-general] Output of make -s kernelrelease has a "" suffix
With 5.17.arch1, the output of make -s kernelrelease ends with "". That is, having a double \" character at the end of the string. It was not like that in prevoius versions. Is that expected? -- u34

Remove include/config/auto.conf and try again. If your build tree wasn't clean and the config hasn't changed since you updated to 5.17, this file may still have a CONFIG_LOCALVERSION="" in it.

Thank you. I already removed the "" suffix manually, and carried on. I can not test what you wrote. From memory, that is close to the situation I was in. -- u34
