Importantly, it only fetches the 30 or megabyte archive when necessary, saving a lot of bandwidth: good for kernel.org as well as dial-up users. There was a suggestion that this script could be packaged in an existing package. I had a look but there was no obvious place. Debian is geared completely towards debian packaged source, patches and kernel binaries, and this doesn't fit with that. Any suggestions, please? Jack Wasey

Debian is geared completely towards debian packaged source, patches and kernel binaries, and this doesn't fit with that. I also skipped the begin of the thread. Funny to see after several posting _why_ a script is created. From http://people.debian.org/~mpalmer/debian-mentors_FAQ.html So, tell us what exactly your package does, and why it should be in Debian. If there is already a program that does a similar thing, say why your one is better. Put a little hot spice in there to hold people's interest. in other words, think like an advertising executive. Just remember to wash the slime off afterwards. Any suggestions, please? Mmmm, kernel-package? from http://packages.debian.org/stable/misc/kernel-package Package: kernel-package (7.107) Debian Linux kernel package build scripts. This package provides the capability to create a debian kernel-image package by just running make-kpkg kernel_image in a kernel source directory tree. It can also package the relevant kernel headers into a kernel-headers package. In general, this package is very useful if you need to create a custom kernel, if, for example, the default kernel does not support some of your hardware, or you wish a leaner, meaner kernel. It also scripts the steps that need be taken to compile the kernel, which is quite convenient (forgetting a crucial step once was the initial motivation for this package). Please look at /usr/share/doc/kernel-package/Rationale.gz for a full list of advantages of this package. Jack Wasey Cheers Geert Stappers pgpY7S2mxhgON.pgp Description: PGP signature
