Notice that 2.6.12-2 will also have a flavours file in the common header (currently but we should move it to this metapackage probably), which lists all flavours which were build for the arch.

I understand that is the current situation. But I think that the idea is to merge the arch-specific headers package. This would lead us with a common kernel-headers-2.6.12 package across all arches, and then per-flavour kernel-headers-2.6.12-flavour packages, which are largely symlinks. Do you think there is a reason this should not be done? -- Horms -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
