Ok, so what's the problem then? Different configs mean different flavours. Flavour name is encoded in the output of uname -r, so the flavour-specific header file will just have to depend on the correct common subarch header file. That's the reason for a requirement that flavour names would be unique. Then we can name the flavour-specific header package
linux-headers-$(version)-$(abiname)-$(flavour)and uname -r will return $(version)-$(abiname)-$(flavour). This header package will depend on
linux-headers-$(subarch)-$(version)-$(abiname),which is the common headers package for this subarch. Is there any case that is not taken into account by this scheme?
