OK.


Package: kernel-image-sparc-2.2
Binary: kernel-headers-2.2.20-sparc, kernel-image-2.2.20-sun4cdm, 
	kernel-image-2.2.20-sun4dm-smp, kernel-image-2.2.20-sun4u, 
	kernel-image-2.2.20-sun4u-smp
Version: 9
Priority: optional
Section: base
Maintainer: Ben Collins <bcollins@debian.org>
Build-Depends: egcs64, gcc (>= 2.95.2-4.1), kernel-source-2.2, 
	sparc-utils, bzip2


If they are still required for sparc32, at least the following needs to
be done to get this package into a good shape:

- drop kernel-image-2.2.20-sun4u and kernel-image-2.2.20-sun4u-smp
  (and perhaps kernel-headers-2.2.20-sparc)
- remove build dependency on egcs64 (no longer in unstable and not
                                     required for sparc32)
- Build-Depends: kernel-source-2.2.25
- s/2.2.20/2.2.25/g
