Package: dphys-swapfile
Version: 20061020-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Usertags: origin-ubuntu intrepid ubuntu-patch
Hi,
Jacob Elder reported that the package forces a limit to the
size of the swap file, and that this is not needed. See
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/270180
The code actually says
# this is a (outdated?) kernel limit (in MBytes), do not overrun it
He also proposed a patch to remove it, which is attached.
Please consider applying it.
Thanks,
James
