Changes:
kernel-package (10.065ubuntu1) feisty; urgency=low
.
* Merge from debian unstable.
.
* Patches remaining:
- kdump kernel type addition. This will probably get backed out once we
can move to using stock kernel for kdump, with relocation.
- update-initramfs usage
- update-notifier usage
- Disable some debconf stuff.
.
kernel-package (10.065) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: dependency on newer coreutils missing",
thanks to Norbert Tretkowski. Added. As far as I can tell, readlink -m
was present in coreutils 5.2.1, uploaded on 14 July 2004, over two
years ago. However, updated the control file for kernel images.
(Closes: #396077).
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: fails when a kernel-patch adds a config var
without a default value". Well. It is partially due to kbuild
helpfully reconfiguring the kernel whenever it thinks it is needed.
thanks to Yann Dirson (Closes: #396122).
.
kernel-package (10.064) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Also remove initrd .bak backups
* Bug fix: "leaves .bak files around after kernel purge, and chokes on
them", thanks to martin f krafft. Well, k-p never generated these
files, and does not actually choke on them. But I suppose we can clean
up after update-mkinitramfs or whatever :)(Closes: #395323).
* Take another crack at handling the ever friendly Kbuild now asking to
update the .config on STDOUT, not STDERR, and bailing when it
discovers output is redirected.
.
kernel-package (10.063) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: Generated postinst fails: Missing Required
paramater 'Old'", thanks to Daniel Jacobowitz. I cleaned up the
postinst as while I was at it, going with readlink -q -m instead of
the built in version. (Closes: #391643).
* Bug fix: "[powerpc] initramfs creation fails with 2.6.18 during
install", thanks to Meelis Roos. This was fixed by the changes above.
(Closes: #394679).
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: No need for any mentioning of bin86", thanks
to Adrian Bunk (Closes: #391677).
* Bug fix: "postinst_hook runs after bootloader", thanks to Martin Buck
(Closes: #391436).
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: A Debian revision is mandatory, but none was
provided", thanks to Marc Haber. Hmm. We were not passing
DEBIAN_REVISION for the clean target, and not doing any sanity checks.
We still don't do sanity checks on clean, but we do pass along the
provided debian revision, so warning is no longer triggered.
(Closes: #391433).
.
kernel-package (10.062) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Forgot to document KPKG_DEBUG introduced in the last upload.
.
kernel-package (10.061) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: kernel package doesn't find $(ARCH) running
make-kpkg debian", thanks to Elimar Riesebieter. Fix it for real this
time. Fixes a grave bug. (Closes: #390487).
* Bug fix: "Easing debugging by outputting commands as these are run",
thanks to Loic Minier. (Closes: #390222).
.
kernel-package (10.060) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Only pass ARCH if KERNEL_ARCH is not empty.
.
kernel-package (10.059) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: Custom .config ignored, m-k clean generates
errors on 2.6.18", thanks to Anthony L. Awtrey. Add an dummy call to
make, if there are problems in the .config, kbuild rewrites .config,
and the informational message messes up the VERSION variable. If the
variable TEST did get a mesage about .config being written, pass it
on. The problem is that any call to make seems to make Kbuild fix
issues in .config -- nothing we can do there. (Closes: #390012).
* Bug fix: "Misleading information in postinst", thanks to Julien Danjou
(Closes: #389697).
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: link_in_boot produces symlinks that are
insufficiently relative", thanks to Ross Boylan. Fix a typo in
determining the relative path for images. Also, in several places,
handle a special case when the source and destination directories are
identical, and use a relative link there. This might help the folks
using a separate /boot and link_in_boot options. (Closes: #389678).
* Bug fix: "Should always pass ARCH= to upstream Makefile", thanks to
Loic Minier (Closes: #390182).
.
kernel-package (10.058) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: Fails to show warning when upgrading running
kernel", thanks to Frans Pop (Closes: #389230).
* Bug fix: "depmod: command not found; tar: -: file name read contains
nul character", thanks to shaulka at 012.net.il (Closes: #385583).
.
kernel-package (10.057) unstable; urgency=low
.
*
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: make-kpkg clean takes forever on a git
repo", thanks to Will Dyson (Closes: #356765).
* Bug fix: "Patch to add --verbose => make V=1", thanks to Philippe
Teuwen (Closes: #387346).
.
kernel-package (10.056) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Bug fix: "postrm_hook is not run", thanks to Michael Biebl. Gak. A
thinko made the postrm still test to see if the script was executable
before looking for it in the path. (Closes: #387286).
.
kernel-package (10.055) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: failure with 2.6.18-rc4 (wireless-dev
tree)", thanks to Marcus Better. Starting with 2.6.18, you can't run
make at the top level like we do to determine the version number
without having a .config file. But it should still be possible to run
clean -- and fail for other initial operations, since we do not want
to create ./debian if we can't detect the version number accurately.
(Closes: #385329).
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: please build md5sums for kernel-packages",
thanks to Mario 'BitKoenig' Holbe. Thanks to Roland Stigge for all
the heavy lifting. I moved the macro definition to a file a location
consistent with my other packages, and allowed for the caller to add
locations that should be excluded from the MD5sums listing.
(Closes: #261019).
* Add a variable called warn_reboot for kernel-img.conf; if set to no,
it shall suppress warning about needing to reboot if installing a
kernel image of the same versions as the kernel which is running.
Some users want enough rope ...
* Create md5sums for this package as well.
.
kernel-package (10.054) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Bug fix: "Please allow ~ in sanity check", thanks to Norbert
Tretkowski. Second cut. (Closes: #383751).
.
kernel-package (10.053) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Bug fix: "Please allow ~ in sanity check", thanks to Norbert
Tretkowski (Closes: #383751).
* Bug fix: "initramfs generator reversed order dep", thanks to
maximilian attems (Closes: #383605).
* Make the question about whether or not to run the default bootloader a
shared question. At this point, we still ask the question every time,
though I am open to using the stored value -- but that would mean that
if the admin has changed their mind since the question whether to run
lilo or grub was asked, we would do the wrong thing, perhaps making
the machine unbootable -- which is why the default is still to ask the
human.
* Bug fix: "Package changelog for generated kernel packages uses
kernel-package changelog", thanks to Andrew Meaden. Truncated, and
repaced with a stub. (Closes: #382743).
* Bug fix: "kernel-package - please remove config target check from
make-kpkg", thanks to Bastian Blank. The check has been disabled for
official kernel images, but not for the general upstream sources.
(Closes: #381828).
.
kernel-package (10.052) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: syntax error in pkg/image/postinst", thanks
to Kiko Piris (Closes: #381827).
.
kernel-package (10.051) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: When overwriting modules, bad suggestion on
moving modules dir", thanks to Dylan Thurston (Closes: #379434).
* With this release of kernel package, changes have been made to the
specification and behaviour of hook scripts for the kernel image,
source, and header packages. Now relative paths can be used to specify
the names of scripts, as long as these scripts live in a "safe" path,
namely, /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin, /usr/sbin. Also, the sanity checking
has gotten more rigorous, failure to find a hook script or failure for
the script to execute correctly is now a fatal error.
* Bug fix: "forces absolute paths in /etc/kernel-img.conf *_hook
variables", thanks to Robert Millan. I elected not to use the patch
provided, since I did not want to blindly trust the PATH variable, and
wanted also to change the ignoring of the return value of the
scripts. (Closes: #380338).
* Bug fix: "linux-image-2.6.16-2-k7-smp: upgrade re-ran lilo", thanks to
Ross BoylanThe default behaviour of the postinst script has been to
run the built in default bootloader (typically lilo) -- set at compile
time, based on the arch. The installed default for Debian, however,
has since moved on to be grub. However, users who are transitioning to
grub may not have set the configuration variable in
/etc/kernel-img.conf --and may still have lilo installed. The trick is
to figure out whether they really want to run lilo. So, if there is no
/etc/lilo.conf, we run nothing. If the user has explicitly asked to
run lilo, we rin lilo. Or if there is no grub, or if there is no
postinst hook script, we run lilo. Or else, we ask the user.
(Closes: #380292).
.
kernel-package (10.050) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: make-kpkg "dirties" git kernel", thanks to
Rob Sims. Make sure that make-kpkg clean undoes the changes made in
./scripts. Also, added to the PROBLEMS file the following issue: When
run in a git sourced tree, scripts/setlocalversion checks to see if
the tree is the trunk, if not, it adds version information to the
kernel version. It also checks to see if there are uncommited changes,
if so, it adds the string "-dirty" to the version. Since we change a
couple of files in ./scripts/, this falls afoul of the make-kpkg
checks, since the version number is now different from what make-kpkg
knows it to be. The workaround is to modify the setlocalversion
script. (Closes: #375559).
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: Phony UTS_VERSION string mismatch", thanks
to Daniel Werner. Actually, the version number contained a +, which is
also a regexp meta-character, so the regexp match was getting confused.
(Closes: #378257).
* Bug fix: "clone targets to support newer default linux prefix", thanks
to maximilian attems (Closes: #374707).
* Bug fix: "yaboot: Incomplete message when removing kernel-package",
thanks to Helge Kreutzmann (Closes: #364336).
* Bug fix: "debian.README.gz: wrong (old) address for Linus", thanks to
Lars Wirzenius (Closes: #376466).
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: strange behavior of bash_completion", thanks
to Matthias Heinz Thanks to Rob Sims for the fix. (Closes: #323668).
* Bug fix: "kernel-package: kernel_image target fails with kernel
2.6.18-rc1", thanks to Kevin Baradon. The fix thanks to Harald Dunkel
(Closes: #377267).
