Is there any possibility of having the various foo-modules-2.4.xx packages
be built concurrently with kernel-image-2.4.xx too?
Something like:
kernel-i386_2.4.21-3_i386.dsc:
Build-Depends: linus-kernel (=2.4.21),
pcmcia-source, alsa-modules-source
Binaries: kernel-image-2.4.21, pcmcia-modules-2.4.21,
alsa-modules-2.4.21
Having kernel modules associated with the kernel source package they're
built for makes it a bunch easier to make sure they're deleted from
the archive along with the corresponding kernel images, and makes sure
that when someone uploads a new kernel image, new module images get
uploaded too.
Pretty please?
Cheers,
aj
