If you want to start on this one to help you a bit more for complex merges I'd highly recommend (in fact I use it even for trivial ones) to follow https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/Merging/GitWorkflow
Seems somewhat doable: git diff old/debian | diffstat changelog | 58 ++++++++ control | 4 iproute2.install | 1 patches/1000-ubuntu-poc-fan-driver.patch | 65 +++++++++ patches/1001-ubuntu-poc-fan-driver-v3.patch | 133 ++++++++++++++++++ patches/1002-ubuntu-poc-fan-driver-vxlan.patch | 177 +++++++++++++++++++++++++ patches/1003-fix-variable-in-libnetlink.patch | 53 +++++++ patches/series | 4 8 files changed, 494 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) That helps you doing the merge as well as the reviewer of your work. Thanks for your suggestion to volunteer for the Community! Since major Delta seems to be for the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FanNetworking you might want to get some help from the Kernel Team once you have something to test. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1659039 Title: iproute2 catch up with upstream To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/iproute2/+bug/1659039/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
