Package: dh-kpatches Version: 0.99.36 Severity: serious Hi,
according to the Description, the purpose of dh-kpatches is to produce patches to be automatically usable by kernel-package: ============================================================================ The dh_installkpatches script produces the "apply" and "unpatch" scripts that kernel-package uses to automatically handle kernel patches. ============================================================================ However, kernel-package dropped the option "--added-patches" around 09/2009. Thus, dh-kpatches doesn't look very useful anymore. The package would either need to be dropped or change its purpose somehow. Thanks for considering. bye, Roland -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.31-1-486 Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_GB.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages dh-kpatches depends on: ii debhelper 7.4.13 helper programs for debian/rules ii perl 5.10.1-9 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction dh-kpatches recommends no packages.
