Bug#593360: live-helper: cannot build with kernel package which ends with a +
Package: live-helper
Version: 2.0~a23-1
Severity: normal
When setting LH_LINUX_PACKAGES=linux-image-2.6.35-um and LH_LINUX_FLAVOURS=amd64+ the kernel live-helper attempts to install is linux-image-2.6.35-um-amd64
This makes building with git kernel impossible.
Workaround is to pass --apt apt to lh config.
On irc twb suggested that this is because the tool used by live-helper
to install packages by default eats the trailing + and that apt in sid
has this functionality as well so this will break completely in the
future.
