Up to now, when one ask for a new kernel : urpmi kernel, the answer is
'no kernel' found (or sometimes the -mm one).
If you do the same for urpmi kernel-26 (or kernel-2.6, i don't
remember), then the full kernel list is displayed.
This behaviour has been introduced, i presume, for the 2.4 to 2.6 switch.
Cooker and fufure 2007 will probably not provide 2.4 (i think 2006 has
already dropped it), so i think it is now safe to have kernel as
provides from 2.6's kernel instead of kernel-2.6.
This is a small thing but quite annoying (and quite hard to explain why
it is so in front of a client.
Hoping to help :-)
