2.6.15 was released upstream ...
Hi ... As you may have noticed, 2.6.15 was released upstream this night, and i did prepare debian source packages at : http://people.debian.org/~luther/2.6.15 Which i am building now and which should be uploadable at around noon, provided someone with a fast box doesn't beat me to it. They will still need NEW processing, which is why i am CCing ftp-masters, since it would be nice if these packages could be NEW processed before dinstall today. There apparently wasn't any kconfig change since -rc7, so this should build straightforwardly for all arches that built previously, which are everyone except m68k which will be readied post 2.6.15, as usual. I have removed the experimental entries, readded the 2.6.14-[4-7] entries, and the changelog now looks as below, i hope this is ok. Ok, thanks everyone again for having made things ready during the -rc phase, and especially to Frederik Schüler for having lead the effort this time. Friendly, Sven Luther linux-2.6 (2.6.15-1) unstable; urgency=low [ Sven Luther ] * New upstream release. [ Bastian Blank ] * [s390] Update configs. [ Kyle McMartin ] * [hppa] Snag latest hppa.diff from cvs.parisc-linux.org. * [hppa] Update configs for 2.6.15. * [hppa] Change parisc kernel names to something less ambiguous. [ Sven Luther ] * [powerpc] Now use ARCH=powerpc for 64bit powerpc flavours, 32bit still stays with ARCH=ppc for now. * [powerpc] Readded PReP Motorola PowerStack II Utah IDE interrupt (Closes: #345424) * [powerpc] Fixed apus patch. * Added make-kpkg --arch option support to gencontrol.py. * Added debian/bin/kconfig.ml to process config file snipplet, so we can preserve the pre 2.6.15 ordering of config file snipplets. Upto 2.6.15 the kernel Kconfig magic apparently kept the later occuring config options, but it seems that this is no more the case. Instead of catting the config files together, not use the kconfig.ml script to read in the files from more generic to more specific, and keep only the more specific. [ dann frazier ] * [ia64] Update ia64 configs [ maximilian attems ] * Drop modular-ide.patch, nacked by ide upstream. Prevents udev to load ide-generic and those successfull boots with initramfs-tools. * Disable CONFIG_USB_BANDWIDTH, causes major trouble for alsa usb cards. [ Norbert Tretkowski ] * [alpha] Removed conflict with initramfs-tools, thanks vorlon for finding the klibc bug! [ Jonas Smedegaard ] * Adjust short description of transitional package kernel-image-2.6- 486 to mention 2.6 (not 2.6.12). * Clean duplicate Kconfig options. [ Frederik Schüler ] * Add updated version of drivers-scsi-megaraid_splitup.patch. * Deactivate CONFIG_IDE_TASK_IOCTL on alpha and ia64 and make it a global option. * Make CONFIG_VIDEO_SAA7134 a global option. * New option CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE set per-arch. * Rename i386 368 flavour to 486. * Add myself to uploaders. * Readdition of qla2xxx drivers, as firmware license has been fixed. * Make CONFIG_PACKET, PACKET_MM and UNIX builtin on all architectures: statically linked has better performance then modules due to TLB issue. * clean up debian-patches dir: remove all obsolete patches: - alpha-compile-fix.patch: obsolete - amd64-int3-fix.patch: fixed since 2.6.12 - net-ipconntrack-nat-fix.patch: merged upstream after 2.6.14 release - net-nf_queue-oops.patch: merged upstream after 2.6.14 release - qla2xxx-removed.patch: obsolete * Drop M386 support remains from the i386 386 flavour: built with M486 from now on. [ Martin Michlmayr ] * [arm] Don't define compiler since GCC 4.x is the default now anyway. * [arm] Add descriptions for class and longclass. * [arm] Compile CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SL82C105 support into the kernel on Footbridge. * [arm] Compile ext3 support into the kernel on Footbridge. * [arm] Turn on CONFIG_SERIAL_8250 support on Footbridge. [ Jurij Smakov ] * [sparc] Correct the patch for the atyfb framebuffer driver (sparc64-atyfb-xl-gr.patch) to finally fix the console and X image defects on Blade 100/150. The new patch is named sparc64-atyfb-xl-gr-final.patch to avoid the confusion. Thanks to Luis F. Ortiz for fixing the patch and Luigi Gangitano for testing it out. * Drop tty-locking-fixes9.patch, which was preventing the oops during shutdown on some sparc machines with serial console. Proper fix has been incorporated upstream. [ Simon Horman ] * Enable MKISS globally (closes: #340215) * Add recommends libc6-i686 to 686 and k7 image packages (closes: #278729) * Enable OBSOLETE_OSS_USB_DRIVER and USB_AUDIO as alsa snd-usb-audio still isn't quite there. I expect this to be re-disabled at some stage, possibly soon if it proves to be a source of bugs.

Forgot to CC ftp-masters, ... i hope the address is correct and it reaches them :) On Tue, Jan 03, 2006 at 09:07:09AM +0100, sven wrote: Hi ...
