Bug#915367: linux-image-4.10.0-rc6-amd64: Please remove this package from the repo
Package: linux-image-4.10.0-rc6-amd64
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I was searching the repo earlier for some rc version of 4.20 and I came across
this package.
Kernel 4.10 was released 18+ months ago, it was not an lts, the package is not
a stable version of it and it also lacks the mandatory header files.
So, in simple terms, it's a useless and forgotten package in the repo, thus I
suggest its removal.
Thank you.
