Well, there was one link like that that used to be there in earlier kernels, and if i remember well, you had to set some kernel-package option to not set it. It may have been another link though.

Yes, it was the build link : build -> /home/sven/genesi/kernel/kernel-source-2.6.8-pegasos And kernel-package knows how to not include it for official builds. The same could be done for the source link ? My self built kernel-image has both for 2.6.8. Friendly, Sven Luther
