Package: kernel-package
Version: 12.025
Severity: normal


Bugs
#551104 kernel-package: "make-kpkg (binary-arch|kernel_image)" generates xenu 
pkg 
#551657 kernel-package: postinst file for xen kernel should be modified 
have been closed, marked resolved, yet I still see no solution.
Therefore, I am filing a new bug report.

Following standard proceedure:
$ cp /boot/config-2.6.31-1-amd64 .config
$ make-kpkg --initrd --revision=custom.1.0 kernel_image
generates linux-xenu-2.6.31_custom.1.0_amd64.deb rather than 
linux-image-2.6.31_custom.1.0_amd64.deb

"It adds in support for Xen DomU, and kernel-package obliges. The only 
difference, at this point, is in the name of the kernel image, it can be 
installed and used as a normal kernel as well."

This SHOULD create a linux-image-2.6.31 package equivalent to the stock 
linux-image-2.6.31-1, as distributed. Any other behavior is WRONG as this 
breaks users' installations and should be fixed. (Perhaps the fix is in the 
documentation and the standard working proceedure needs to be modified...)

Please note that a user compiling a kernel using make-kpkg starting from a 
standard kernel may not know anything about Xen.

Thank you.

Alan

Changes: 
 kernel-package (12.026) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * A new bug fixing version
   * [6d91188]: Add an example of cross compiling for a subarch Based on
     a bug report by Arthur Marsh
   * [b9434e8]: Change the name of the Xen image packages to be closer to
     grub expectations
     Bug fix: "standard make-kpkg proceedure creates xenu image", thanks to
     Alan BRASLAU                                        (Closes: #556043).
   * [a76509e]: Add .gnu_debuglink section to installed modules make-kpkg
     produces split debuginfo for modules and does not add .gnu_debuglink
     section. This causes problems with tools that expect debuginfo files
     with extension .debug (like libwd1, used by systemtap).
     Bug fix: "should add .gnu_debuglink section to kernel modules", thanks
     to Євгеній Мещеряков                                (Closes: #556130).
   * [22e91f3]: Add a new HOWTO from Stephen Powell
