Well it uses the package name, like so: kernel-image-<kver><subarch> which for example on sparc matches kernel-image-2.2.14-sun4cdm > > Most likely you should have the MINOR be "15" and the EXTRAVERSION be > > "-pre19".

Well, not in the package name (that would be awful), but in the package version. Preferably it would be nice to have 2.2.15 in the package name, but that's up to you for implementation. I think it would be better because I would hate to see kernel-source-2.2.14 not actually be 2.2.14 pristine source when we release. Instead, it would be better to have it alway be kernel-source-2.2.15, so when 2.2.15 releases, we don't need to add new kernel-source pakcages to the archive, and we wont have to change boot-floppies to look for new kernel image packages.
