Description:
kernel-package - A utility for building Linux kernel related Debian packages.
Closes: 333220 335316
Changes:
kernel-package (10.001) experimental; urgency=low
.
* Bug fix: "doesn't install: Internal Error: Could not find image
(/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.27-xxs1500)", thanks to Martin Michlmayr. Well,
calling kimage vmlinux.srec was breaking the postinst. However, kimage
does not seem to be used anywhere except in determining the next
value, namely, kimagesrc -- so I just added .srec to kimagesrc, and
thus eliminated the need for hacking the postinst. So the fix was
earlier in the build process, and not deferred to the postinst.
(Closes: #333220).
* Acknowledge the changes made for initrd stuff in the NMU
series. Thanks to Sven Luther for the work. I have made some changes,
for example, instead of hard-coding the list of initrd tools one
considers in the installation phase, now one can set that list by
editing /etc/kernel-pkg.conf -- and this replaces the hard coded
list. Of course, the admin at the target location can still over-ride
that list by editing /etc/kernel-img.con (note, not the same as
/etc/kernel-pkg.conf above); this makes things slightly more
flexible. Also, the list of commands does not have to be the fully
qualified path, the postinst and preinst use the PATH variable to find
the commands.
* kernel-img.conf.5: Document the fact that the ramdisk variable can now
be a space separated list of init ram disk creation commands, which
need to also support the --supported-host-version and
--supported-target-version options, just like mkinitrd does. This is
the list tried at installation time.
* kernel-pkg.conf.5: Document the fact that one can provide the default
values for the list by setting INITRD_CMD, but this list can be
overridden by the one in kernel-img.conf.5. However, the defaults are
set to a subset of "mkinitrd mkinitrd.yaird mkinitramfs", the subset
being decided based on the version of the kernel being built, so one
should refrain from setting this manually -- unless one knows what one
is doing.
* kernel/image.postrm, kernel/image.prerm: Added new variable for the
initrd dependency, and also modified the variable ramdisk to be a
space separated list of commands, not just a single command.
* kernel/image.postinst, kernel/image.preinst: Added new variable for
the initrd dependency, and also modified the variable ramdisk to be a
space separated list of commands, not just a single
command. (find_inird_tool): Added function to determine the list of
viable initrd creation tools present on the target system, and use it
to select which tool to use for creating the ram fs.
* Bug fix: "'man make-kpkg' typo: 'thatthis'", thanks to A
Costa (Closes: #335316).
