this was merged into base-installer 1.129, and seems to be responsible
for the build failure, in the test suite:
FAIL powerpc/powermac_newworld.test arch_get_kernel want 'linux-image-powerpc',
got 'linux-image-powerpc-smp linux-image-powerpc'
powerpc: 113 passes, 1 failures.
(https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=base-installer&arch=powerpc&ver=1.129&stamp=1355061770)
It looks to me like this is just a matter of registering the smp
flavour as one of the possible value for kernel-2.6 in
kernel/tests/powerpc/powermac_newworld.test (it's already known as a
usable flavour anyway), but a confirmation would be nice.
