Bug#377228: kernel-image-2.6-amd64-k8: package should depend on linux-image-2.6-amd64-k8 (dist-upgrade troubles otherwise)
Package: kernel-image-2.6-amd64-k8
Version: 103sarge1
Severity: wishlist
Hello,
yesterday I did a dist-upgrade from sarge (unofficial amd64 stable) to
etch, with aptitude dist-upgrade.
At the point, where udev should be upgraded, the upgrade stops, because
udev 0.93 depends on kernel >= 2.6.15
After the stop, I had an half upgraded system. Where aptitude wanted
to uninstall aptitude, due to unresolved dependencies :-(
I found out, that kernel-image-* is renamed in testing to linux-image-*.
So I manually installed linux-image-2.6-amd64-k8, which solved the
problem.
So I believe, that there should be a virtuell packet in testing, which
resolves the naming conflict.
Greetings
Juergen
