Hello, ...
There is not yet a 2.4.21 kernel-source package, and as thus there is
also not yet a kernel-patch-2.4.21-powerpc package. I am taking over
maintainership of the unstable powerpc kernels from Dan, and i have
already such a package ready, but i was not yet able to test it without
the 2.4.21 kernel-source package.
Just wait a few days for them.
Friendly,
Sven Luther
