Package: kernel-image-2.6.10-1-686 Version: 2.6.10-4 Severity: minor
another bug report :) I think this affects all kernel-image packages. I installed the fitting kernel-headers-2.6.10-1-686 along with this image package. Then I got this message: ///////// However, the directory /lib/modules/2.6.10-1-686 still exists. If this directory belongs to a previous kernel-image-2.6.10-1-686 package, and if you have deselected some modules, or installed standalone modules ... Do you want to stop now? [Y/n] \\\\\\\\\\\ Of course, I stopped, because I was a) confused and b) of course not sure what I did some weeks ago. As you might know, the headers package creates a symlink like: $ ls -l /lib/modules/2.6.10-1-686 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 36 2005-02-10 12:13 build -> /usr/src/kernel-headers-2.6.10-1-686 I would suggest to include a test, that if there is the /lib/modules/2.6.10-1-686 dir, then also test if it _only_ includes the above symlink. If so, you can drop that message in such cases. I would think that many people only see this message, because they previously or at the same time installed the headers, by adding such a test a lot of time and confusion could be saved to these people. regards, jens -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.9-1-386 Locale: LANG=de, LC_CTYPE=de (charmap=locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory ANSI_X3.4-1968) -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
