Package: kernel-source-2.6.4
Version: 2.6.4-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

When I configured my User Mode Linux 2.6.4 kernel to use CIFS, the 
linker failed because both fs/cifs/netmisc.c and libc define inet_addr.

While I don't know why the author of CIFS thought they needed to define 
this function, I got around the problem by just commenting it out:

Hello,

as the subject says, kernel-patch-uml has been removed from the
repository as UML support is included in upstream kernels now.

After some examination I decided the bugs submitted to it don't apply
anymore or are obsolete WRT to current user-mode-linux kernel packages.
If you disagree feel free to discuss on the mailing list at
[EMAIL PROTECTED] about the issue.

Thanks

PS: sorry Matt ;)
