Please unblock kernel-package/10.067



Hi,

        This is a bug fix release, and at least a couple of the fixes
 do need to get into etch; the fix which adds missing files to the
 linux-headers packages for the UML arch, so that modules can be built
 for UML virtual machines, and the bit where a typo causes kerel image
 symbolic links to not be properly updated.

        All these changes should be low risk ones.
kernel-package (10.067) unstable; urgency=high

  * Bug fix: "kernel-package: using obsolete package 'ldso'", thanks to
    normes@normes.org. Well, we were not exactly "using" the package, but
    just recording the version number. This is a low risk change.
                                                        (Closes: #407793).
  * Bug fix: "kernel-package needs some additions to @files_to_remove",
    thanks to Stephen Gran.  Added modules.seriomap as a file to be
    removed in the postrm, allowing /lib/modules/$version to be removed.
                                                         (Closes: #408900).
  * Bug fix: "kernel-package: linux-headers for UML do not include various
    Makefiles", thanks to Marcus Better. This should be a low impact
    change.                                             (Closes: #408369).
  * Bug fix: "Kernel and initrd image symlinks aren't updated properly",
    thanks to Dennis Vshivkov.  This bug needs to be fixed for Etch, since
    it causes the symbolic links to the image and initrd to not be
    updated in some cases.                               (Closes: #409240).
  * Bug fix: "kernel-package support for armel", thanks to Joey Hess. This
    should be a low risk change for other architectures, and armel is not
    yet in consideration for etch, so any support in kernel-package is
    better than none.                                    (Closes: #410459).
