I just see that this is not relevant as kfreebsd uses a different tree within k-w than linux. I'd already started wondering why k-w could be used at all for a totally different kernel without modification, but that is because support was already added in 2006 (#365074). Still, the basic argument remains the same: the current definition inside the udeb itself is consistent with what's currently done for Linux and I really don't see any maintenance cost associated with it. In fact, given that apparently apparently no changes are needed in k-w at all even though it reflects a kfreebsd kernel from *2006* kind of indicates it'slikely hardly any maintenance will be needed... If only the Linux kernel were that stable :-P -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
