The check shown below is almost complete (but for a couple of 2.2 patches and per-arch patches). I'm asking if mass bug report filing is opportune at this stage. IMHO patches which cannot be applied to debian kernel-sources are almost unuseful and should be removed from sarge...
----- Forwarded message from Francesco Paolo Lovergine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----- Old-Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> From: Francesco Paolo Lovergine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: debian-kernel@lists.debian.org Subject: Status of kernel-patches in sarge Mail-Followup-To: debian-kernel@lists.debian.org I'm performing an ongoing activity to check the applicability of current kernel-patches against sarge kernel-sources for 2.4.27 and 2.6.8. An almost complete summary is available at http://people.debian.org/~frankie/kernel-patches-checks.txt As you can see, there are a few patches which cannot be used with neither 2.4.27 nor 2.6.8. Marked patches should be simply RC bugged and hinted for remove if not aligned properly. I would also point that too often patch names differes from their kernel-patch names, without justification. I'm working on a little script to do this kind of light check automatically, too. -- Francesco P. Lovergine -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
