Hash: SHA256
Build fails if you include a kernel in the flavours like the ones from
experimental that has a different name, for example on this case it
fails with a structure like this:
vmlinuz-3.2.0-4-486
vmlinuz-3.2.0-4-686-pae
vmlinuz-3.8-trunk-686-pae
Just like you can see in this paste with the error:
http://paste.debian.net/236002/
You can see the error in the expansion on the line 28 which includes 2
times a vmlinuz file, as how SynrG told me in the chat the solution
should be:
<SynrG> step 1. remember which flavour is which sequence #
<SynrG> step 2. sort all flavours by length, longest 1st
<SynrG> step 3. iteratively match all flavours, removing them from the list of
kernels to match whenever we have a match
<SynrG> step 4. rename all matched vmlinuz-* to vmlinuz#
<SynrG> if you can figure out how to do that in shell, be my guest :)
The attached patch should solve the problem, it was tested in a sandbox
(simulated) environment with the result included in the comments but not
in a real build since I was able to install the kernel 3.7 from
experimental but not the 3.8 one (broken dependencies), however I readed
the code and it should not conflict in the rest of the script behaviour
Thanks
