This is the reason why dh_builddeb is failing.  Maybe it is just a
stale file.  Change to /usr/src/modules/mol, run "fakeroot make -f
debian/rules clean", and try to build the modules again.  If it still
fails, go back to /usr/src/modules/mol and do the following:

Run "rm -f debian/control; make -f debian/rules debian/control" and
send the output and the contents of debian/control.

Run "find -name mol.ko" and send the output.

Run "ls -l debian" and send the output.

Oh, and check for the obvious reasons for build failures: Missing
permission to read files or write to directories, disk full, toolchain
incomplete, that sort of thing.

Regards, Jens.
