eam has already requested to reduce the number of source packages drastically. So, I'm on the side of the security team, i.e. to go to as less source packages as possible. Cheers, Andi -- http://home.arcor.de/andreas-barth/ PGP 1024/89FB5CE5 DC F1 85 6D A6 45 9C 0F 3B BE F1 D0 C5 D1 D9 0C

What to do with "duplicate" kernels?

2004-05-23 Thread Andreas Barth
I file removal-requests if there is more than one version in testing? Or something else? (And, of course, this could be different from maintainer to maintainer, so it's open to your individual decision.) Cheers, Andi -- http://home.arcor.de/andreas-barth/ PGP 1024/89FB5CE5 DC F1 85 6

" / I was also considering to step forward, but of course, I prefer if someone else does it. ;) One other change I'd like to see ASAP is to having a "first class architecture set" instead of a individual kernel for i386 and alpha (and possible more to add to this). Cheers
