Package: linux-latest-2.6 Version: 2.6.30+20 Severity: wishlist
linux-image-amd64 and linux-image-2.6-amd64 seem to be pretty fragile. Every other day their dependency to the "real" kernel package is broken, because the kernel has been updated and linux-latest-2.6 is not in sync. Do you think it would be possible to increase the stability of these packages wrt. the dependencies? I would like to have a reliable way to install a kernel without knowing the version information. AFAICS there are several options: - merge the source packages for linux-latest-26 and linux-2.6, making sure the packages are in sync - make linux-image-amd64 a virtual package provided by the "real" kernel, or create a new virtual package for this purpose - don't put too much version information into the name of the "real" kernel package, and use the debian version number instead Surely there are other options that I do not see. It would be very nice if this problem could be resolved. Many thanx Harri -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
