Kernel 2.6.32.2 problem during compile with fixdeb [Solved]

Hi all,

I was sitting the whole day infront of my laptop and tried to fix an problem i have withe the new kernel from Arch Linux 2.6.32.2-1. So i decided to compile my own kernel and here started my journey of failures. I have found this how to in the german Arch forum: https://wiki.archlinux.de/title/Eigenen … _erstellen. For everyone not speaking german here is another howto with the same content but not so good explained: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Kernel_Compilation. I decided for the third method "compiling the Arch way" and followed the instructions of the author. The idea is an package which can simply rebuild at any time i need a new kernel.
The problem i cannot solve is, that "make" cannot find the programm fixdeb. I am using the command makepkg -c and makepkg -e and nothing works.

HOSTCC  scripts/basic/fixdep
/bin/sh: scripts/basic/fixdep: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
make[1]: *** [scripts/basic/fixdep] Fehler 1
make: *** [scripts_basic] Fehler 2

Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden = no such file or directory

I also tried the traditionally way of building a kernel, but "make menuconfig" also gives the same error message. I do not understand why the compiler cannot find the file. It is definitly in the source folder. I also tried installing the kernel headers, but nothing works. The sourcecode of the kernel is from kernel.org. Please help me. And if you need more informations please ask me.
