RTAI upstream has patches up to and including 2.6.24, so it's still a
matter of packaging all that sanely.

what is the status of this bug? Any change RTAI can be compiled with >= 2.6.18 ?

Ok, tagged for removal from testing, thanks.

no, just drop it and i'll try to get it into lenny as suggested. I
hope we have more luck with the combination of Debian kernel and RTAI
patches then ...

Thanks for the input.

Edelhard, do you have any objection to dropping this package from testing
immediately given the lack of support for linux 2.6.18?

Thanks,

And besides, I tried to get 2.6.18 support [1] from upstream for etch, but 
upstream does not care much [2] about 2.6.18 and only supports 2.6.17 and 
2.6.19 (because it would be difficult to support 2.6.18 due to half-done 
changes to the interrupt handling there).

In essence, I'd advocate dropping RTAI for etch, too (it might make a comeback 
in early lenny-testing days). :-(

Good luck with the release,
-Malte

And the answer is, yes, the kernel-patch-adeos generated from the rtai
source only supports kernels up to 2.6.8...

On the contrary, kernel-patch-adeos is still in etch for mips and mipsel,
because the kernel-patch-adeos source package was never built there so never
overwrote the binaries from the rtai source.

But then the question is whether the rtai source package is affected by bug
#378967 as well.  If it isn't, then getting a working kernel-patch-adeos
back into etch is as simple as binNMUing rtai for the archs in question; if
it is, then it seems likely that rtai as a whole would need to be dropped
from etch.

Bug#415651: requires unavailable kernel-patch-adeos

2007-03-20 Thread Filipus Klutiero
Package: rtai-source
Version: 3.1.0-4
Severity: grave

According to README.Debian:

The Debian rtai source package currently provides four packages,

 1) rtai-source, which provides the source for the kernel modules, some utility 
binaries, the userspace libraries (LXRT) and the testsuite. RTAIs all-in-one 
packaging makes it very hard to split it into separate packages. Nevertheless 
i'm planning to cut off the usual librtai and -dev package and at least 
rtai-utils.
 2) kernel-patch-adeos, which is necessary to compile and, of course, run the 
stuff from 1)

The binary package kernel-patch-adeos was previously built by rtai, as
the README says, but is now (in sid) built by adeos, which was removed
from Etch due to an RC bug. kernel-patch-adeos is no more
in Etch, so it should not be possible to compile or run rtai-source from
Etch.
