Uploaded kernel-package 5.05 (source all) to master



Hi folks,

	This is a major revision of the kernel-package. With help from
 non-i386 folks, this version should be freindly to other
 architectures. It is also much more amenable to folks who need to
 cmpile various versions dependent on the architecture/config file, as
 it supports diffrent config files per architecture, falling back to
 the old behaviour. 

	The rules file has been cleaned up a lot, and this version
 should be easier for folks to read. However, since this _is_ a major
 change, I'd appreciate folks taking a look at this version and
 reporting any breakage.

Source: kernel-package
Binary: kernel-package
Architecture: source all
Version: 5.05
Distribution: unstable
Urgency: low
Maintainer: Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>
Description: 
 kernel-package - Debian Linux kernel package build scripts.
Changes: 
 kernel-package (5.05) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Fix documentation about using the rootcmd option. closes: BUG#25566
   * fixed source postinst so it no longer expects an untarred
     /usr/src/kernel-source-VERSION directory. closes: BUG#25650, 26511
   * allow clean to work even if .config does not exist. closes: BUG#26265
   * Fix case in the name of the Flavours file. closes: BUG#26434
   * Made the images go into $(IMAGE_DESTDIR), which defaults to
     /boot. This can now be set by loadlin folks in the config file to
     whatever they wish. Also changed the postinst to not freak out when
     the image apparently goes missing.
   * Added the support for different config files depending on architecture
     and sub arch. A set of config files for different archs are shipped in
     /usr/lib/kernel-package/Config/. This is useful for people who compile
     for several architectures.
   * Major cleanup and rewrite for mutiarchitecture support. All arch
     related stuff is catured in a section on top. There is no need to edit
     it into the kernel makeile, we can now determine subarchs ourselves.
   * Also pass along the maintainers email address while compiling the
     modules, not just the name.
   * Make sure that sparcs use the vmlinux file, and gzip it. This
     closes: BUG#26199
   * Cleaned up the modules installation part. Now it conforms more closely
     to the kernel makefile, and indeed, it uses the kernel Makefile for
     the newer kernles where the module install path is modifiable using
     the new INSTALL_MOD_PATH variable.
