Bug#475036: removal doesnt seem an option atm, or?

[Holger Levsen]

Hi,

today there are still two packages depending on kernel-package, cdfs-src and 
linux-2.6. dphys-kernel-packages has beem removed from sid and lenny.

cdfs-src suffers from #482075, so it might be a removal candidate too.

linux-2.6 build-depends on kernel-package (= 10.063). If the code still uses 
kernel-package, and I have no reason to not believe the control file, removal 
of kernel-package is not really an option at this time. 

So far I think/thought this bug (#475036) should be tagged lenny-ignore but on 
a 2nd read of it, I'm not so sure anymore: kernel-package has users who like 
it and rely on it, but yet it's broken on recent kernels... 


regards,
Holger

This code is scheduled for removal after the release. If it can't be
used in Lenny, then it needs to go earlier.

Äh, the maintainer decided that it is not suitable for release.
