Bug#478651: linux-2.6: Please include latest vserver patches



Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.24+13
Severity: normal

Hello,

The vserver upstream has more recent patches than are available
with the debian kernels. These are at:
	http://vserver.13thfloor.at/Experimental/
It would be helpful if these could be packaged (for sid or even in experimental)
so that people can test them. I am getting worried that will not
have an upgrade path for vserver users from etch.

Linux-vserver does not seem to be asleep!
The latest patches for the kernels in lenny and sid seem to be:
	http://vserver.13thfloor.at/Experimental/patch-2.6.24.4-vs2.3.0.34.diff
	http://vserver.13thfloor.at/Experimental/patch-2.6.25-vs2.3.0.34.9.diff
The latter is from 29th April 2008!

I admit that it is a while since I built a kernel and so it may be
that these patches do not work at all. In that case please feel free
to close this report.

Regards,

Kapil.
