Package: linux
Version: 3.14.15-2
How comes that linux_3.14.15.orig.tar.xz differs so much from
upstream? I understand that some code has to be removed due
to licensing restrictions, but shouldn't the remaining changes
be included into the quilt set?
Regards
Harri

That's what happens. What makes you think otherwise?
See debian/series-orig for the list of patches which are applied to make
the tarball dfsg free and debian/series for the normal quilt set (i.e.
the debian.tar differences).
Since this appears to be more of a question rather than a bug I've
closed #760818 for the time being. Feel free to continue the
conversation on debian-kernel@ and reopen if/when a bug is identified.
Ian.
