The problem is that the DAK will update linux-2.6, kernel-tree-x.y.z-n
and kernel-image packages without any regards to linux-kernel-di. They
will become out of sync and end up without source -> GPL violation.

In the old setup kernel-source-2.6.8 will remain until removed manualy
and linux-kernel-di has that as source.
