Package: kernel-patch-2.6-reiser4
Version: 20050715-1
Severity: minor
Hello Ed Boraas, Domenico Andreoli and others,
Problem:
The reiser4 patch from Debian::testing does not support the 2.6 kernel
from Debian::testing (package kernel-source-2.6.8, version 2.6.8-16).
Is it convenient for other users of Debian::testing when the
reiser4-patch package supports kernel 2.6.8?
Is it possible and not too difficult to support this kernel version?
(I can imagine that tracking to which Debian version different
reiser4-patches have propagated and changing the reiser4-patches
whenever they enter a new Debian version, is too much work.)
Solutions:
1: (Not tested, if needed i can test it. But someone with more
knowledge of kernel-patch-2.6-reiser4 than i have, might imediaty
see if this will work.)
- Add reiser4-*-2.6.8.patch.gz to
/usr/src/kernel-patches/diffs/reiser4/
- Edit /usr/src/kernel-patches/all/apply/reiser4
change KVERSIONS and PATCHFILES to include the new files.
2: (For other users who like to have reiser4 with a 2.6.8 kernel from
debian.)
Keep using kernel-patch-2.6-reiser4 version 20040813-6 (available
in Debian::stable (sarge))
With kind regards,
Kasper van den Berg
