Cannot compile latest kernel 4.4.9

[abyss02]

Hi there,

i want to stick to the 4.4 kernel an tried to compile kernel 4.4.9 via:

 

apt-get -y install git

git clone https://github.com/igorpecovnik/lib--depth 1
cp lib/compile.sh .
chmod +x compile.sh
./compile.sh

 

after that, i built the following directory and file:

 

mkdir userpatches

vi userpatches/lib.config

 

and added:

 

KERNELBRANCH=â€v4.4.9â€

 

as described here:

 

 

http://forum.armbian.com/index.php/topic/1008-how-to-compile-latest-kernel-447/

 

 

Whenn running ./compile, i get the following messages:

Any hints?

Please check quotation marks around version - if they were normal, they wouldn't display at all.

This is your double quote symbol: â€
This is normal double quote symbol: "

This is really too bad ... 

 

 

Thanks a lot, zador.blood.stained, that was the fault :-(

 

 

So simple, but i would not have solved it in a 100 years.
