Right, but it’s still better if every Debian architecture
“feels” similar enough. I’m very much *not* knowledgeable
about Linux kernels other than 2.0.3x ;-) so I’d appreciate
feedback nevertheless, to keep the “feel” harmonised.

Yes, but how to do that? The file you referenced only says
in which order they’re concatenated, but I’ve got no idea
what overrides what, etc.

Did nobody script that yet? I can’t believe that.

(Anyway, it’ll still be a while until I have something
I can submit, so no need to hurry. But I’d like to be
steered back into the correct direction should I stray.)

Thanks,
