Package: kernel-package
Version: 10.039
linux-headers-2.6.16 is missing .kernelrelease - This is needed so that users
compiling third party modules can install them in the /lib/modules/`uname
-r`/ tree.
The latest linux Makefile looks at .kernelrelease to determine where modules
should be installed. The patch fixes the problem for me..
