Looks quite interesting! Thanks for packaging raising questions here. > 1.

The installation will contain a package called > linux-image-iitb-amd64 that conflicts with linux-image-amd64, and this > package will depend on the latest patched kernel built in the previous > step. Specifically regarding repackaging and versioning of derived packages, I recommend that you follow the guidelines for Derivatives: https://wiki.debian.org/Derivatives/Guidelines#Packages You might find other things in that and related wiki pages useful too :-) - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
