True, and I like that too. However, if I apply this, all BSPs on ptxdist master will download a new kernel and complain about a wrong md5sum.

I'll apply it and wait for someone to complain :-) Michael > Signed-off-by: Andreas Bießmann <[email protected]> > --- > rules/kernel.make | 2 +- > 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) > > diff --git a/rules/kernel.make b/rules/kernel.make > index 336b76d..4a45a3f 100644 > --- a/rules/kernel.make > +++ b/rules/kernel.make > @@ -31,7 +31,7 @@ endif > # > KERNEL := linux-$(KERNEL_VERSION) > KERNEL_MD5 := $(call remove_quotes,$(PTXCONF_KERNEL_MD5)) > -KERNEL_SUFFIX := tar.bz2 > +KERNEL_SUFFIX := tar.xz > KERNEL_DIR := $(KERNEL_BDIR)/$(KERNEL) > KERNEL_CONFIG := $(call remove_quotes, > $(PTXDIST_PLATFORMCONFIGDIR)/$(PTXCONF_KERNEL_CONFIG)) > KERNEL_LICENSE := GPLv2 > -- > 1.7.9.6 > > > -- > ptxdist mailing list > [email protected] -- Pengutronix e.K. | | Industrial Linux Solutions | http://www.pengutronix.de/ | Peiner Str. 6-8, 31137 Hildesheim, Germany | Phone: +49-5121-206917-0 | Amtsgericht Hildesheim, HRA 2686 | Fax: +49-5121-206917-5555 | -- ptxdist mailing list [email protected]
