Hey folks,
I am tracking http://kernel-archive.buildserver.net/debian-kernel
and would be keen to experiment with new kernel releases. However,
when a new release comes out, like 2.6.30-rc*, it lacks the
corresponding linux-kbuild-2.6 binary package, e.g.
linux-kbuild-2.6.30 in this case.
I know I am supposed to build this by hand[0], but that's quite an
effort, and possibly duplicated by many people at the same time.
[0] http://wiki.debian.org/HowToRebuildAnOfficialDebianKernelPackage#Thestoryoflinux-kbuild-2.6
Wouldn't it be possible to also upload the kbuild packages alongside
the kernel image pre-releases to buildserver?
Browsing the web, I found
http://www.linux-archive.org/debian-kernel/209956-linux-kbuild-2-6-27-kernel-archive-buildserver-net.html.
Is this still an issue? Would you let me upload for i386/amd64 if
I built the packages?
I am sure this would lead to many more people trying newer kernels
and improve the overall feedback.
Cheers,
