Package: kernel-image-2.2.19-sun4u
Version: 7
Severity: minor
The package descriptino says:
If you wish to update a bootdisk, or to use a bootloader to
make installing and using the image easier, we suggest you install the
latest fdutils (for formatting a floppy to be used as boot disk), and
LILO, for a powerful bootloader. Of course, both these are
optional.
This is incorrect for non-i386 architectures, and this kernel is only
for sparc architecture.
Not sure if this would have to be chagned in the kernel-source or
what...

Version: 9.1
This bug was fixed in an NMU, but never closed. I'm closing it with the
correct version so that its status can be properly version-tracked.
For reference:
kernel-image-sparc-2.2 (9.1) unstable; urgency=HIGH
.
* NMU. Liberal fixes make the source package robust enough to survive
another release cycle.
* All security holes fixed with kernel-source upgrade (closes: #239711)
- Bump everything necessary to version 2.2.25, add build-dep on
kernel-source-2.2.25 (>= 2.2.25-3) which incorporates the mremap
fixes.
- mremap vulnerabilities are all addressed.
* Enable CONFIG_QUOTA, no harm - 2.2 images are still tiny! (closes: #87859)
* Lose the sun4u images because 2.4 is much preferred for these machines
and works 100%.
* Rework descriptions to note that most people should install 2.4 kernel
images.
* Build fixes:
- use tar --bzip2 instead of tar I
- add build-dependencies on kernel-package, debhelper (>= 4)
- sparc64-NEW_GAS-and-CC: use ld -V, not ld --version
- lose the whole "let's maintain several kernel versions with the same
source package" idea, flatten out debian/rules and remove all 2.2.19
dirs
- use debhelper with kernel-headers package, makes life a lot easier
* Trivial fixes:
- s/LILO/SILO/g in package descriptions. (Closes: #101024)
- Append meaningful EXTRAVERSION names to distinguish kernels and allow
them to be concurrently installed, a la 2.4. (Closes: #185993)
- remove Emacs variables from changelog file
- Lose unused debian/fixup-configs.
Regards,
Adam
