Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: grave

Security updates for the Debian kernel packages are available in unstable
for multiple architectures, and are ready to propagate into testing once a
number of stale binary packages are removed.


i386
----

From the i2c source package:

i2c-2.4.27-1-386, i2c-2.4.27-1-586tsc, i2c-2.4.27-1-686,
i2c-2.4.27-1-686-smp, i2c-2.4.27-1-k6, i2c-2.4.27-1-k7,
i2c-2.4.27-1-k7-smp

From the linux-wlan-ng source package:

linux-wlan-ng-modules-2.4.27-1-386, linux-wlan-ng-modules-2.4.27-1-586tsc,
linux-wlan-ng-modules-2.4.27-1-686, linux-wlan-ng-modules-2.4.27-1-686-smp,
linux-wlan-ng-modules-2.4.27-1-k6, linux-wlan-ng-modules-2.4.27-1-k7,
linux-wlan-ng-modules-2.4.27-1-k7-smp

From the lm-sensors source package:

lm-sensors-2.4.27-1-386, lm-sensors-2.4.27-1-586tsc, 
lm-sensors-2.4.27-1-686, lm-sensors-2.4.27-1-686-smp, 
lm-sensors-2.4.27-1-k6, lm-sensors-2.4.27-1-k7, 
lm-sensors-2.4.27-1-k7-smp

From the kernel-image-2.6.8-i386 source package:

kernel-headers-2.6.8-1


Rene does not object that these packages are not built from source, even
though this is the case for lm-sensors, i2c, and kernel-image-2.6.8-i386.
(For linux-wlan-ng, the modules packages are not listed in the source
package control file at all.)  For i2c and lm-sensors, there has been a new
upload that supersedes these binary packages.  For linux-wlan-ng, there has
been no such upload; however, the packages currently in the archive are
broken with all available kernel packages, so I don't think there's any
reason to keep them, especially since they block fixed kernel packages from
testing.  For kernel-headers-2.6.8-1, this package is still referenced by
other source packages in unstable that build it for other architectures
(s390, hppa, alpha) that have not yet been updated.


In addition, a new version of alsa-modules-i386 is awaiting NEW processing
which brings this set of modules into line with the current kernel ABI.  Due
to a bug in the previous version of alsa-modules-i386, this package is *not*
blocking the transition of the fixed 2.4.27 kernel packages into testing,
but it would be nice to have -- there will also be stale 2.4.27-1 binaries
to be removed for this package.


alpha
-----

From the kernel-image-2.4.27-alpha package:

kernel-headers-2.4.27-1-generic, kernel-headers-2.4.27-1-smp,
kernel-image-2.4.27-1-generic, kernel-image-2.4.27-1-smp

This is reported by rene.


ia64
----

From the kernel-image-2.4.27-ia64 package:

kernel-build-2.4.27-1, kernel-headers-2.4.27-1

From the kernel-image-2.6.8-ia64 package:

kernel-headers-2.6.8-1

These are not reported by rene.


sparc
-----

From the kernel-image-2.6.8-sparc package:

kernel-headers-2.6.8-1

This is not reported by rene.
