Hello, ...

Are you speaking about debian/potato release ?

If yes i guess it was decided to use 2.2.15pre4 or whatever as the final
candidate for the debian/potato/powerpc release.

But it is not possible to do so for apus. I have prepared a
kernel-image-2.2.10-apus package that is the kernel to be used by the
apus subarch. Anyway it is not really needed apart for the modules, since
there is no such thing as lilo or quick for apus.

If not, who are you and what release are you speaking of ?

Friendly,
