Package: ftp.debian.org Severity: normal In hindsight, splitting 'oprofile' and 'oprofile-source' into separate source packages was a bad idea. The original idea was to make it easier to build the oprofile kernel module for 2.4.x kernels. In reality, it requires maintaining two separate source streams that are really just copies of one another, introducing more ways to create errors and inconsistencies. Please see bug #300683 for additional information (recently reassigned from 'oprofile-source' to 'oprofile').
The more maintainable method is to have the 'oprofile' package create the kernel modules from source. That package is in the process of being reorganized in order to do this properly. Hence, the 'oprofile-source' source package is no longer needed; a replacement for it will be created from the 'oprofile' source package, along with the kernel modules for 2.4 kernels, as they should be. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12-1-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
