sarge backport of linux-2.6 stuff available, ...



Hello,

I built backported versions of udev and kernel-package which would allow to
build and use linux-2.6 2.6.12 inside sarge. This should allow to install
linux-2.6 2.6.12-6 from sid directly even, i believe, without need to rebuild.

I am currently building powerpc kernel packages, and will upload them there,
but other arches may want to provide backports too. I was forced to disable
the ppc64 kernels obviously, as sarge has not the biarch toolchain. Not sure
if it makes sense to backport it or not.

So, i wonder if volatile is the right place for such packages, or if we should
provide our own sarge backport archive.

PLease give them a try, and comment or something.

Friendly,

Sven Luther
