Bug#301613: kernel-source-2.6.11: NEWS.Debian missing



Package: kernel-source-2.6.11
Version: 2.6.11-1
Severity: normal

I was quite surprised to see that Broadcom tg3 card is no longer
supported in 2.6.11. I thought the driver was free except for the
optional firmware?

Anyways, I found the following paragraph in the changelog, but I
cannot find the file NEWS.Debian it refers to. At least it's not in
/usr/share/doc/kernel-source-2.6.11 where I would expect it to be.

| Drop prune-non-free, add NEWS.Debian to document the dropping
| of the tg3 driver, and the existence of kernel-nonfree-*
