[Bug 128721] Re: Please backport 2.6.22 kernel from Gutsy to Feisty

2007-07-27 Thread John Dong
Kernel backports cannot be done for compatibility and logistic reasons (amongst other things, there are new udev userland dependencies, and headers like linux-libc-dev get replaced with newer incompatible versions, and we are unable to provide any security updates) ** Changed in: feisty-backports

I should also add, if it at all works, you should be able to directly install kernel debs from Gutsy. This is unsupported and not any safer/more dangers than backporting the package, but regardless it's not something that should be handled in the backports repository -- Please backport 2.6.22
