Your package doesn't depend on Linux 2.6. Your package depends on NPTL. The only NPTL implementation Debian provides is in Linux 2.6, but users may have built their own 2.4 kernel with NPTL patches. You should depend on what you actually require, and if the package management system doesn't allow you to express that dependency you should document it instead. -- Matthew Garrett | [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
