Re: powerpc 2.6.10-2 currently in NEW, available on p.d.o
Hi,
Note: I don't have initrd.img and vmlinux links in /boot, but I have
initrd.img.old and vmlinux.old (I have installed 2.6.9 and removed it
afterwards, hence I have only 2.6.8 as "old").
I have errors when installing 2.6.10-2 on PowerBook 15" Alu:

[Additional question: Why does dpkg leave kernel installation in
unconfigured state when mkvmlinux is not installed? With apt-get it
refuses to install it. Doesn't dpkg check dependencies?!]
