What to do with "duplicate" kernels?

[Andreas Barth <aba@not.so.argh.org>]

Hi,

I hope that all kernel maintainers read this list, so I didn't Cc
them. However, if I don't get a response for some architecture, I'll
forward this message.

Sometimes there are more than one kernel version on a specific
architecture in testing.
http://people.debian.org/~aba/merkel/kernels.txt lists for which this
is current valid (also by running ~aba/exec-k-p kernel-image-2.4 on
merkel):
remove kernel-image-2.4.21-s390/2.4.21-2
remove kernel-patch-2.4.19-mips/2.4.19-0.020911.8
remove kernel-patch-2.4.20-apus/2.4.20-1
remove kernel-patch-2.4.22-powerpc/2.4.22-13
remove kernel-image-2.6.3-alpha/2.6.3-2
remove kernel-image-2.6.3-i386/2.6.3-2
remove kernel-patch-powerpc-2.6.5/2.6.5-2


My question to the maintainers of the individual packages is now: How
do you want to address this? Do you want to individually hunt it down
on your architecure? Or would you prefer if I file removal-requests
if there is more than one version in testing? Or something else? (And,
of course, this could be different from maintainer to maintainer, so
it's open to your individual decision.)



Cheers,
Andi
