(new) kernel-doc-2.6.7_2.6.7-2_all.deb optional doc
Linux kernel specific documentation for version 2.6.7
This package provides the various readme's in the 2.6.7 kernel
Documentation/ subdirectory: these typically contain kernel-specific
installation notes for some drivers for example. See
/usr/share/doc/kernel-doc-X.X.XX/Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what
is contained in each file. Please read the Changes file, as it
contains information about the problems, which may result by
upgrading your kernel.
(new) kernel-patch-debian-2.6.7_2.6.7-2_all.deb optional devel
Debian patches to Linux 2.6.7
This package includes the patches used to produce the prepackaged
kernel-source-2.6.7 package. They should be applied to a pristine
Linux 2.6.7 kernel.
(new) kernel-source-2.6.7_2.6.7-2.diff.gz optional devel
(new) kernel-source-2.6.7_2.6.7-2.dsc optional devel
(new) kernel-source-2.6.7_2.6.7-2_all.deb optional devel
Linux kernel source for version 2.6.7 with Debian patches
This package provides the source code for the Linux kernel version 2.6.7.
.
You may configure the kernel to your setup by typing "make config"
and following instructions, but you could get ncursesX.X-dev and try
"make menuconfig" for a jazzier, and easier to use interface. There
are options to use QT or GNOME based configuration interfaces, but they
need additional packages to be installed. Also, please read the detailed
documentation in the file
/usr/share/doc/kernel-source-2.6.7/README.headers.gz.
.
If you wish to use this package to create a custom Linux kernel, then
it is suggested that you investigate the package kernel-package,
which has been designed to ease the task of creating kernel image
packages.
(new) kernel-tree-2.6.7_2.6.7-2_all.deb optional devel
Linux kernel tree for building prepackaged Debian kernel images
This meta package is used as a build-time dependency of prepackaged
Debian kernel-image packages. Its dependencies are structured so that a
complete kernel tree with Debian patches applied will be available after
this package is installed. It also contains the upstream changelog file.
.
For those intending to use this package as a build-time dependency, this
package provides a list of virtual packages that guarantees the availability
of a particular Debian revision of the kernel tree. The
kernel-image-2.6.7-i386 package is an example of this.
Changes: kernel-source-2.6.7 (2.6.7-2) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Removed another tainted driver (closes: Bug#242895), and amended
remove-references-to-removed-drivers.dpatch accordingly. Actually,
this was done in the previous revision, but we forgot the changelog
entry (Christoph Hellwig, Jens Schmalzing).
.
* Renamed debian/revision back to version.Debian. Having it outside the
debian/ directory is mandatory for kernel-tree to work (Jens Schmalzing).
.
* Added the drivers-net-tg3 patch. It only adds firmware loading
support, contrary to the drivers-net-tg3-readd patch which re-adds the
whole driver. As a consequence, the Debian patch also applies to the
vanilla kernel again. Note that this patch is only kept here for
reference for the time being and will not be activated until the next
upstream release (Jens Schmalzing).
.
* Added the fs-asfs patch by Marek Szyprowski, containing support for
the Amiga Smart Filesystem. Actually, the patch was already part of
the kernel-patch-powerpc package and has been moved over from there
(Jens Schmalzing).

Your package contains new components which requires manual editing of
the override file. It is ok otherwise, so please be patient. New
packages are usually added to the override file about once a week.
You may have gotten the distribution wrong. You'll get warnings above
if files already exist in other distributions.
