Can anyone shed any light on the differences between the
various kernel source packages in the repository, and which is
the best choice for just being able to reproduce the running kernel?
The example in my Martin Kraft book refers to:
apt-get install kernel-source-2.6.8
but I can't find a 'kernel-source-anything'..
The docs on debian.org suggest
apt-get install linux-source-2.6
but looking in the repository I also see
linux-source
as well as
linux-tree-2.6.18-n
where n is a number between 1 and 8, and there are also
linux-tree-2.6.18.dfag.1-n
where n is 9-19, some with 'etch' followed by a digit appaended.
The above are all 'v' packages. There is also
linux-source-2.6.18
and
linux-tree-2.6.18
which are actual packages.
Can anyone explain what the reasonaing is behind this organization?
Thanks,
DigbyT
