Package: linux-2.6 Hi. I got snippy at the maintainer of udev earlier today because I didn't see any kernel-image-2.6.12-* packages in my friendly neighborhood Debian repository or on any other one I could find, yet current versions of udev require 2.6.12 or better. While using "linux-" as a prefix is probably more appropriate than using "kernel-", not everyone keeps up on package naming conventions. When individual software packages get renamed, there are usually transitional packages that stick around for a while. Please create dummy packages named kernel-image-2.6.12-* kernel-headers-2.6.12-* etc. That depend on the linux-* packages so that people know what's going on. It'd be best to do this for a few more revisions, if at all possible. Thanks. -- Mike Hicks <hick0088@tc.umn.edu>Attachment: signature.asc
