 I already unblocked it on 2008-11-19, and I already told you on IRC that
 it can't migrate because it's uninstallable:

Then force it. This is going to be fixed by a new linux-latest upload.

 I realize what the problem is: l-m-e-2.6 uses -source packages from
 unstable to build the modules; if then the modules migrate but the
 -source package does not, and we release, we have a license compliance
 problem, right?

Sure. The problem is not new. I tried to start a discussion[1], but
noone was interrested. So for now you have no other possibility.

 I'm very unhappy about this. It's a new upstream version with quite a
 lot of changes AFAICS.

I am sorry we are kind of forcing this now, this was absolutely not intended. 

When I was looking what to cherrypick for the old version in Debian, I should 
have backported more than 3/4 of the commits, all being bugfixes relevant for 
normal operation, among them security issues (CVE-2008-4579, CVE-2008-4580 
and others found via code audit) and grave functionality bugs like not 
working noatime support (what you really want on a shared filesystem, to 
avoid exclusive write locks on every file access).

I should have asked on this list first, before uploading.
 
GFS still has problems on high load, not fixed yet upstream, caused by DLM 
changes in linux-2.6 2.6.26 (2.6.25 works), which probably need to be 
addressed there. 

Best regards
Frederik Schüler

 Hi folks

Hi, Bastian.

 Please unblock linux-2.6/2.6.26-11. It introduces another stable update
 and fixes several other problems.

Unblocked, will migrate when it ages.

 Please unblock linux-modules-extra-2.6/2.6.26-5. It is a schedules
 rebuild to introduce new images and build against new modules sources.

I already unblocked it on 2008-11-19, and I already told you on IRC that
it can't migrate because it's uninstallable:

 Please unblock redhat-cluster/2.20081102-1. It is necessary to have

I'm very unhappy about this. It's a new upstream version with quite a

I realize what the problem is: l-m-e-2.6 uses -source packages from
unstable to build the modules; if then the modules migrate but the
-source package does not, and we release, we have a license compliance
problem, right?

In a way, -source packages can be considered as a kind of libraries
during the freeze: they prevent the ability of other packages to migrate.
We want a better handling of libraries during the freeze for squeeze;
I've made a note that -source packages could use the same mechanisms.

This doesn't solve the current problem, though.
