Package: wnpp Severity: normal I intend to orphan the ieee80211 package.
As it is now included in vanilla kernel since 2.6.14 and is impossible to build without breaking the debian packaging system for recent kernels (see #338775), I lost interest in packaging ieee80211. I'm therefore orphaning it. The package description is: This package provides the source code for the 802.11 (wireless) network stack module for the Linux kernel. Though it has been incorporated in latest kernel versions, the bundled one might not be up-to-date to build third-party wireless modules such as ipw2100 or ipw2200 which are common on Centrino notebooks. . In order to compile these modules you need the kernel sources (or the kernel-headers for the kernel-image packages from Debian). For compile instructions look into /usr/share/doc/ieee80211-source/README.Debian or simply use the module-assistant utility. . The project's homepage can be found here: http://ieee80211.sourceforge.net -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-1-686 Locale: LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
