Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I intend to orphan the kernel-patch-kdb package.

Please read the debian-devel thread at [1] before adopting it, such
packages have far less value today than they used to - but that status
may change again.

[1] http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2010/03/msg00639.html

The package description is:
 This package contains a patch to the Linux kernel, which provides a
 means of examining kernel memory and data structures while the system
 is operational.
 .
 This package includes a magicpoint presentation and demo; you'll need
 the mgp package to view it.
 .
 Additional commands may be easily added to format and display
 essential system data structures given an identifier or address of the
 data structure.
 .
 Current command set allows complete control of kernel operations
 including single-stepping a processor, stopping upon execution of a
 specific instruction, stopping upon access (or modification) of a
 specific virtual memory location, stopping upon access to a register
 in the input-output address space, stack tracebacks for the current
 active task as well as for all other tasks (by process id),
 instruction disassembly, et. al.
 .
 Included is support for 2.6.7 on i386 and ia64, and 2.6.6 on i386,
 ia64, sparc64, and amd64. kdb 4.3 versions for 2.6.5 and 2.4.25 are
 also provided.  Versions close enough may (or may not) work.  Please
 look at /use/share/doc/kernel-patch-kdb/README.Debian for more info.
 .
 The BFD headers from the binutils-dev package are required to compile
 a kdb-enabled kernel.
 .
 Version 6.23 of the kernel-package package has a bug preventing correct
 application of this patch.
