			* If no files exist in the fakeroot directory ''/tmp/fakeroot/lib/modules/2.6.38.8-porteus/extra'' then the kernel modules will not be packaged and IPset will not work.
			* Strip the ipset binary to save space:
			''''strip /tmp/fakeroot/usr/sbin/ipset''
			* If they do exist, build the .xzm package:
			'''dir2xzm /tmp/fakeroot /tmp/ipset-4.5.xzm'''
