Well, that doesn't help those who get their kernels elsewhere, which IMO are the ones most likely to have their own scripted solutions using make install and thus debianutils in the first place, thus the general announcement suggestion, but a kernel-2.eclass einfo as proposed is a start and certainly won't hurt. =8^) (Also, as I've said, folks with such site-customized scripts are precisely the ones advanced enough they /should/ catch it and be well able to make the necessary changes themselves, regardless of warning, but should != will, and a GMN/GWN/ upgrade-guide warning is a nice touch in any case.) -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
