Bug#515261: linux-image-xen-686: missing dependancy to xen-linux-system-2.6.26-1-xen-686
Package: linux-image-xen-686 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system When doing a full-upgrade from etch to lenny on a system running xen the xen hypervisor is not updated accordingly. A dependancy to xen-linux-system-2.6.26-1-xen-686 is missing which means that grub is configured to use the xen hypervisor from etch to run the 2.6.26-xen kernel. Result is an unbootable system. Adding xen-linux-system-2.6.26-1-xen-686 will solve the issue since this correctly instructs grub to use the new xen hyperviser from lenny. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_DK.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_DK.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

This can happen with every kernel update. There was plans to add a meta package for xen-linux-system, but it was never finished.
