It was planned to someday remove kfreebsd-9 from d-i, but we still need to think what happens during upgrades. Maybe freebsd-net-tools needs to set a Breaks: on older kernels?
We already have this. See: Breaks: .... # ifconfig requires kfreebsd >= 10 due to new SIOCAIFADDR ABI # (see r228768 in upstream svn) kfreebsd-image-8, kfreebsd-image-9, The udeb doesn't, though. I'm just not sure how to do it there.
Or there may even be a way to modify freebsd-net-tools so it is compatible with both kernels, if that's vital.
I don't think that would work. The redefinition of ifaliasreq, etc structs make it very error-prone to attempt compatibility. -- Robert Millan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
