Mmm, right I probably tried it with sid sources for 2.6.11 for a project of mine... -- Francesco P. Lovergine -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#310577: 'kernel-patch-grsecurity2' does not apply to any current sarge kernel
Package: kernel-patch-grsecurity2 Version: 2.1.5-1 Severity: grave Dear Laszlo Boszormenyi (GCS) As reported in http://people.debian.org/~frankie/kernel-patches-checks.txt, kernel-patch-grsecurity2 does not apply clean to a current kernel-source. If you think this package is anyway useful at least with an up-to-date vanilla kernel and sure that it applies properly, feel free to document this in the package and reduce the severity of this report, else this kernel-patch will be hinted for removing in sarge. See also this ML thread about the issue: http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2005/05/msg01325.html -- Francesco P.

Somewhere the package installation of the warning is missed, but it is in the package itself; see debian/README.* . They need update, so I do not reduce the severity now, but maybe will reduce it to important only. Anyway, will correct the READMEs. The debconf warning is there by the way (debian/po/templates.pot). else this kernel-patch will be hinted for removing in sarge. Please do not remove it now, will update the READMEs to be up-to-date soon. Regards, Laszlo/GCS -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

About that specific patch, the nice thing is that the nude patch applies nicely to debian kernel source, but kernel-patch fails :-? -- Francesco P.
