My interpretation of what Moritz said is that this would be necessary so we can have both the 2.6.32 derived kernel in squeeze-lts and a backport of the wheezy kernel. They will serve different purposes and should indeed coexist, which means they need different source package names. (and yes, this is much better than having a separate 'nhalf' kernel as per my original suggestion). Cheers, Dominic. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
