Package: kernel-package Version: 11.0011 Severity: serious Tags: d-i Justification: kernels built using this break sparc D-I builds
Daily builds of D-I for sparc have been failing with: gzip: ./tmp/netboot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-1-sparc64: not in gzip format This has been traced to the fact that the kernel as taken from the 2.6.26-10 linux-image package for sparc64 (built 08 Nov) is no longer compressed. As sparc still uses kernel-package to build official Debian kernel images (based on info from Bastian Blank), this is most likely a regression in kernel-package. It is unknown whether this issue also affects other architectures or not. The previous D-I kernel udebs were based on linux-image 2.6.26-8 (built for sparc on 9 Okt) did not have this issue, so at that time things were still OK. Please inform both the kernel team and the installer teams when this issue is fixed as we will need binNMU's for linux-2.6 for any (potentially) affected architectures and after that new uploads of the kernel udebs for D-I.
