I didn't mean to imply that it was that important, but according to that README
(see "Debian's libc6 method"), it looks like that should've been changed
beginning with kernel-[headers,source]-2.0.32 . That seems like such a minor
issue to upload all four kernel-[headers,source]-2.0.[32,33]. I think I'll set
the hold in dselect.
I'd read that README previously, but didn't find it consistent. Now it makes
sense. Thanks.
There is still one outstanding issue: dselect won't live up to the depend in
libc6-dev and allow kernel-headers-2.0.32 to be uninstalled if
kernel-headers-2.0.33 is installed. Why is that?
