Package: linux-image-2.6.18-1-powerpc
Version: 2.6.18-3
Severity: normal
Hello,
I installed etch today with the daily cd-images on an iBook and then downloaded
the
latest kernel from the pool and tried to install it:
$ LC_ALL=C sudo dpkg -i linux-image-2.6.18-1-powerpc_2.6.18-3_powerpc.deb

The directory /lib/modules/2.6.18-1-powerpc still exists. Continuing as
directed .

Hmm. The package shipped with a symbolic link

Description:
kernel-package - A utility for building Linux kernel related Debian packages.
Closes: 391433 391436 391643 391677 394679
Changes:
kernel-package (10.063) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: Generated postinst fails: Missing Required
paramater 'Old'", thanks to Daniel Jacobowitz. I cleaned up the
postinst as while I was at it, going with readlink -q -m instead of
the built in version. (Closes: #391643).
* Bug fix: "[powerpc] initramfs creation fails with 2.6.18 during
install", thanks to Meelis Roos. This was fixed by the changes above.
(Closes: #394679).
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: No need for any mentioning of bin86", thanks
to Adrian Bunk (Closes: #391677).
* Bug fix: "postinst_hook runs after bootloader", thanks to Martin Buck
(Closes: #391436).
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: A Debian revision is mandatory, but none was
provided", thanks to Marc Haber. Hmm. We were not passing
DEBIAN_REVISION for the clean target, and not doing any sanity checks.
We still don't do sanity checks on clean, but we do pass along the
provided debian revision, so warning is no longer triggered.
(Closes: #391433).
