Package: kernel-package
Version: 10.064
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
Found a few typos in '/usr/share/man/man5/kernel-pkg.conf.5.gz', see attached
'.diff'.
Note: the text around "theversion" may need revision:
% man kernel-pkg.conf | grep -n -C 1 theversion
43- debian The version of the kernel packages, includes both the
upstream
44: Set to YES, this causes a make clean to be run in
theversion and
45- the Debian revision. Can be overridden by the environment
vari-
For example, it's not clear what "includes both the upstream Set to YES"
means. I'm guessing some punctuation was left out.
Hope this helps...
