I've a security patch for 2.6.18 that changes code that is also changed by the vserver patch. Its pretty clear what both trees should look like in the end, but I don't know of a way to generate them cleanly in the build system.
The problem is that, when generating the vserver tree, the build system first applies all of the generic series files, then it goes back and applies the -extra files. So when I add a conflicting patch in 17etch1, the vserver patch in 9-extra fails to apply. Of course, I could go back and hack the vserver patch, or add a "fixup" patch into 9-extra that reverts the security fix before it applies the unmodified vserver patch, then reapply the security fix to vserver in 17-extra. But, both of these options break the generation of old vserver source trees. Personally I'm not too bothered by this, but does anyone have a better suggestion? -- dann frazier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
