So i don't see the > point why one expect bug reports there... it does depend on some more stuff than just the kernel. for example kernel headers or nptl support in glibc. apparently not every package does compile correctly with 2.6 kernel and kernel headers yet. same applies to nptl stuff. what i want to say here is, the kernel devs won't be too happy to get flooded by kernel bugs that aren't related to the stock kernel, but the system around the kernel. But i see ciaranm's and kumba's points, so it might really be the better solution to have them in development-sources for now. -- Markus -- Markus Nigbur Gentoo Developer http://www.gentoo.org
