Package: kernel-package
Version: 11.002
Severity: grave
First off, thanks for whipping kernel-package into shape for the
release! Now the issue..
I just upgraded my ia64 workstation to an image from
linux-2.6_2.6.26-8, and was presented with a debconf screen that
shows some detection problems with the elilo bootloader. The "$loader"
string in the template does not appear to get updated. (I'll provide a
link to a screenshot image once a bug number is assigned)
The nasty part is that - even though my system is configured to run
elilo without prompting - elilo doesn't run and my system is left
booting the old kernel.
Though a careful user may notice the message warning them that elilo
has not run, I expect there's a significant number of users who
wouldn't know that they need to take an action (or what that action
might be). This puts them at a risk of unknowingly running kernels
with open security issues, which is my justification for the RC
severity.
buildd.debian.org shows that kernel-package_11.002 is what was used to
build this package, so that's what I'm using for the version
pseudoheader. I don't know if this existed in earlier versions or was
fixed since, but I didn't see anything in the changelog that looked to
be related.
