-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Format: 1.7 Date: Thu, 3 Nov 2005 23:26:29 -0600 Source: kernel-package Binary: kernel-package Architecture: source all Version: 10.004 Distribution: experimental Urgency: low Maintainer: Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org> Changed-By: Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org> Description: kernel-package - A utility for building Linux kernel related Debian packages. Closes: 115884 247782 Changes: kernel-package (10.004) experimental; urgency=low . * Bug fix: "using debconf", thanks to Robert Millan (Closes: #115884) * Bug fix: "does not install non-interactively", thanks to Matt Kraai (Closes: #247782) * This fine tunes the dependencies between targets. All of the package building targets are ones that insert themselves into the normal flow of policy specified targets, so they must hook themselves into the stream. That means, in essence, that they must depend on the configure and corresponding build targets (with stamps) and ensure that the prep work is all done before they are invoked. The advantage is that nothing is going to be remade more often than it needs to. It also means we do not need to produce as many stamp files. So, the only dependencies on any of the intermediate targets are targets that have not been registered into the ladder created in rulesets/common/targets.mk * The kernel image maintainer scripts have been greatly changed. Firstly, they now use debconf; and a number of questions have been moved to the config file (create-kimage-link-$version, old-initrd-link, old-dir-initrd-link, old-system-map-link) while others are asked conditionally in the postinst (depmod-error, depmod-error-initrd, bootloader-test-error, bootloader-error). The postinst has also become far less verbose; the users are far better educated a decade after this was written, and there are other sources of information about booting than the postinst of a kernel image. * The preinst also uses debconf. All the questions asked are still here -- we just use debconf to ask the user. Also, the priority, and need to break non-interactive installs was re-evaluated, and the preinst breaks in far fewer cases than it did before. * Second, the postinst gets rid of the code that generated boot floppies and created lilo.conf (that latter was probably illegal under current policy anyway). The do_boot_enable and do_boot_floppy configuration variables in /etc/kernel-img.conf are now invalid. * Also, the source tree is not automatically cleaned; the do_clean configuration variable, and the environment variable CLEAN_SOURCE are now control if the source tree is optionally cleaned after the kernel image package is built.
