debian-cd scripts should be modified to include only one version (with all variants - 686, k7,586, etc.) of kernel-image-2.4.x and 2.6.x



Hi,

As usually important kernel-images (like kernel-image-2.6-k7) are missing
at the 1rst DVD disk of the latest official Sarge DVD images (Now-13 and
older), while not useful (outdated) kernel images or kernel sources take
lots of place at the first Debian Sarge DVD:

morph@Zaidimai:/media$ du -h cdrom/pool/main/k |grep kernel |grep M
11M     cdrom/pool/main/k/kernel-image-speakup-i386
4,8M    cdrom/pool/main/k/kernel-image-2.4.26-i386
42M     cdrom/pool/main/k/kernel-image-2.4.27-i386
3,1M    cdrom/pool/main/k/kernel-image-2.6.7-i386
43M     cdrom/pool/main/k/kernel-image-2.6.8-i386
4,0M    cdrom/pool/main/k/kernel-source-2.4.26
40M     cdrom/pool/main/k/kernel-source-2.6.6
40M     cdrom/pool/main/k/kernel-source-2.6.7

About 100 MB are wasted by not useful (outdated) kernel-image and
kernel-source packages, while latest aren't fully included - for example
 kernel-image-2.6.8-1-k7 and kernel-headers-2.6.8-k7 are missing :(

I've reported bug about this - see
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=280935 but didn't got
any answer :(
