Summary: si_prepareclient can't identify kernel file

Initial Comment:
I am using the 3.6.2-2 packages for Debian stable as
downloaded via apt from the repository specified on the
SI website. 

When I run the command 'si_prepareclient' on the gold
client, the program exits after a while with the
following error:

"I couldn't identify your kernel file.  Please try --XXX."

I tracked the problem down to the regular expression in
the '_get_kernel_release' function of the SI perl
module 'UseYourOwnKernel.pm'.  The regular expression
doesn't match the 'uname -r' string from the kernel. 
Specifically, the following two strings (from 2
different debianized kernel packages I have tried)
aren't matched:

"2.6.16-2-xen-686 (Debian 2.6.16-18~bpo.1)
([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 3.3.5 (Debian
1:3.3.5-13)) #1 SMP Mon Aug 21 17:58:12 CEST 2006"

and

"2.6.16-2-686 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) #1 Mon Aug 21 11:33:09
CEST 2006"


Using the following expression instead fixes the bug:

"(2\.[46]\.\d.*?) \([EMAIL PROTECTED]) [#]\d+.*\w{3} \w{3} \d{1,2}
\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2} \w{3,4} \d{4}"

The changes compared to the original expression are an
allowance for 3 or 4 characters in the timezone portion
of the string (instead of only 3 originally) and a non
greedy match in the portion matching the version string
, so that the version string is recognized to end at
the first encounter of a space character.  This
expression matches all example strings in the comments
of the original file as well as the ones above.

cheers,
Manuel Schulte

Fixed in trunk r3736.  If you can test this tarball:

http://www.bcgsc.ca/downloads/oscar/systemimager/dev/systemimager-3.7.4r3736_bli.tar.bz2

That would be great.  Thanks!
