Then speak to me about it.

It is the way it used to work in 2.4 kernels, and was even documented in the
kernel-source packages.

And, do you have any other solution for not getting the powerpc package to
break once kernel-source-2.6.7-4 is uploaded ?

Huh ? I just added myself as uploader,

Thanks all the same for team work. Do you really think we can continue to work
like that ?

You didn't even check in your above mentioned changes into svn, which is
counterproductive.

And you are also actively opposing a 2.6 based miboot using debian-installer,
which means we will be saddled with 2.4 kernels for oldworld miboot install,
which i really wanted to avoid.
