That does seem like a bit of an oversight, though I am not sure what effect it would have. Actually, I'm not sure that we are using .extraversion. In any case it seems like something that kernel-packge - the tool used to build the kernel images - should be worried about. I've CCed its maintainer, Manoj, for comment. > This omission may be related to bugs 94 134 141 I suspect you got those numbers from a search on bugs.debian.org. They aren't actually current bug numbers, most current bugnumbers are somewhere above #280000. Could you please go back to the page you were looking and report the bug numbers, they are preceeded by a #. For instance, if I look at the following link, then the first bug there at this moment in time is #279689: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.9-1-686: freeze when starting rivafb That can be universally refered to as #279689. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?which=src&data=linux-2.6&archive=no&version=&dist=unstable > It does cause an install error for driver installation packages which read > .extraversion Could you give some details of the failure that you are seeing? -- Horms -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
