That would be great, but there doesn't seem to be a kernel-source-diff (or something like that) package in any repository. am I missing something ? I still only find these packages - kernel-patch-debian package: to be applied to kernel-source...orig _only_ - kernel-source-...orig... package: a pristine kernel with an unknown patch. - kernel-source-... package: a pristine kernel with the kernel-patch-debian patch, and the unknown patch. None of these relate to a pristine kernel. Beside, as the second and third packages contain the full (many MBytes) kernel with only slight differences, I would see one or the other as very redundant indeed. anyway, thanks for answering, Ernest ter Kuile.
