this is because if the chown in the PRE_BUILD
chown -R root:root ../linux-$VERSION ../linux
apparently it dosent like this

so

maybe

chown -R root:root ../linux-$VERSION
chown -R root:root ../linux

?

../linux should be a symlink to ../linux-$VERSION, so you actually only
need to chown the real directory tree.

"chown -R root: ../linux-$VERSION" should be all you need

this bug is not anything more than a spurious error message.
