How about the simple fix of adding two more lines: + linux-2.6.[1-9][0-9].tar.bz2 + patch-2.6.[1-9][0-9].bz2 And if you want your example of patch-2.6.22.1.tar.bz2 you also need: + patch-2.6.[0-9].[1-9].bz2 + patch-2.6.[1-9][0-9].[1-9].bz2 etc. That should help until Linus starts releasing 2.6.100 :) Perhaps you should think about what it is you *don't* want. Do you mean you don't want linux-2.6.22.1.tar.bz2 etc.? Then perhaps: - linux-2.6.*.gz - linux-2.6.[0-9].[0-9].tar.* - linux-2.6.[1-9][0-9].[0-9].tar.* + linux-2.6.*.bz2 - patch-2.6.*.gz + patch-2.6.*.bz2 - * Completely untested, I always have to test these things, but you get the idea I hope.
