Haha, very funny.
kernel-source-2.4.22-1: Never gets modified. Only uploaded once.
kernel-source-debian-2.4.22-1: Gets modified as needed, when new
features/fixes come out.
The latter depends on the former. This will *reduce* mirror traffic. Keeping
it all in one *increases* mirror traffic, as a small change(fix or feature)
requires uploading the entire source.
