1) Modify the kernel build so uname -v includes "Debian" - this is a pretty trivial change. It does present problems if people build kernels on their own - one option would be to make sure that the kernel build system ensures that this is set.
i think this will only cause things to be more broken when people aren't running the right kernel.. it also just seems Wrong to me. 2) config.guess currently produces i386-unknown-netbsdelf1.5. Under Linux, this is i386-pc-linux-gnu. Adding i386-unknown-netbsdelf1.5-gnu (or possibly even just i386-unknown-netbsd-gnu), determined by the different uname output, would allow for Debian-specific alterations to be made which could be included upstream without breaking anything else. i like i386-unknown-netbsd-gnu or i386-unknown-netbsd-debian. i'd ask the config.guess maintainers what _they_ feel about this.. (Oh, and kudos to the NetBSD guys for producing a kernel which seems happy to build with gcc 3.04 :) ) we try :) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
