Re: NPTL support in 2.4 kernel series?



Maybe I am still not making myself clear:

I _know_ that having that dependency will not fix my problem. I _know_ that even
with the dependency I will have to check during installation and if possible
every time a binary is executed whether the kernel version is right.

Yet I still think a dependency would help in many standard cases and make the
dependency apparent even before you have the package installed/when upgrading.
It seems, however,  that it is quite inconceivable to expect people to have at
least one kernel of each stable kernel series installed that is registered with
dpkg and provides kernel-image-x.y, and I will just have to honor this tradition.

Martin.
