kernel-package (7.100) unstable; urgency=low

  * Hmm. There was a bug report that said kernel-package does not call
    make correctly when concurrency is set; however, this happens to be a
    mischaracterization. The top level make call a recursive make: $(MAKE)
    -j2; the level 2 make then calls another sub make, and the level 3
    make spits out the error that it is running with -j1, as documneted. I
    have cleaned up soe of the rules involved to get greater transparency
    in the phenomena. Also, remove benign warning about not finding the

    version.h if it doesn't exist, but doesn't touch if exists), so the

  * We now check and dissallow all hyphens in revision string. The
    software and the documentation was inconsistent as to the format of
    the revision flag: the man page and the command line help insisted
    that hyphens were not allowed; the README and the software itself
    would allow hyphens, but no checks were then in place to ensure the
    resulting version was legal. This caused problems at the tail end of a
    fairly expensive kernel compile. I think I am going to standardize on
    not allowing hyphens, cause then the checks already in place are
    sufficient, and I think it is reasonable not to have debian revisions
    for kernel-image-X.X.XX packages (in a way, these packages are really
    Debian only). So, now you may no longer sneak in a hyphen and thus
    debian revisions into the ekrnel-image versions (and thus it shall
    remain unless there is a public outcry). closes: Bug#82034
  * Added more verbose messages when we f;ag a revison as violating the
    all lowercase requirements of Debian policy; you see, the FLavour and
    extrav_version variables become part of the kernel-image package name
    (the name is kernel-image-VERSION-FLAVOUR, where VERSION also contains
    the EXTRA_VERSION var). Added checks to make-kpkg as well, and added
    more docs in the check. closes: Bug#83169

  * For folks using grub, there are now postinst_hook and postrm_hook

  * Try and make relative links when creating links to image files, if

  * Make the source package suggest task-tcltk-dev, rather than tk-dev,
    since the latter is no longer provided by modern packages (apparently
    it was not meant to be a publically used virtual package)
  * Rewrote the preinst to pay attention to the kernel-img.conf. Added a
    variable called clobber_modules that shall have the preinst move
    /lib/modules/version dir out of the way silently. (I strongly suggest
    that this varible not be set unless you know what you are
    doing). closes: Bug#62745
  * Added (courtesey of Peter Moulder) a new option called --config to
    make-kpkg, which allows you to specify what configure target shallb e
    used by make-kpkg. Defaults to oldconfig. This was added so you can
    run your usual config step _after_ the kernel has been patched by
    make-kpkg. closes: Bug#61503
  * Added a new target to make-kpkg, called debian, which essentially
    creates a ,.debian directory and runs the kernel patch process. This
    is so you have an alternative to using --config; you can just call
    make-kpkg debian, make menuconfig, make-kpkg ....

kernel-package (6.32) frozen unstable; urgency=low

  * darnit. Forgot to mention frozen in the last upload. The current
    potato version is broken (a grave bug); this fixes it. This version
    also has undergone extensive testing, complete with building modules,
    and installing the results, on an i386 machine. I would consider this
    the final release for potato.
  * Fixed a minor typor "are are" --> "are" in the docs. closes: Bug#56290

kernel-package (6.31) unstable; urgency=low

  * Never release a version without a full install test. There were typos
    in 6.30 which made it not work
  * Pulled back the support for HOSTCC and CC variables in make-kpkg,
    since it caused all modules to fail. In fact, just setting CC=gcc
    causes havoc. modules tested: alsa-source, lmsensors, and
    others. Again, this is important.

    please the SMP folks out there. closes: Bug#50480
  * Dixed the Multi-Arch document so that the patch and unpatch example
    scripts do not wipe out stamp files. Also noted that the files in the

    should be allowed in frozen, even in deep freeze.
  * Added an option arch_in_name to ask kernel package to embedd the sub

    always embedding the arch in the name). Note that only the image
    package _name_ is affected. fixes: BUG#31972

    /boot. This can now be set by loadlin folks in the config file to
    whatever they wish. Also changed the postinst to not freak out when
    the image apparently goes missing. 
  * Added the support for different config files depending on architecture
    and sub arch. A set of config files for different archs are shipped in
    /usr/lib/kernel-package/Config/. This is useful for people who compile
    for several architectures.
  * Major cleanup and rewrite for mutiarchitecture support. All arch
    related stuff is catured in a section on top. There is no need to edit
    it into the kernel makeile, we can now determine subarchs ourselves. 
  * Also pass along the maintainers email address while compiling the
    modules, not just the name. 
  * Make sure that sparcs use the vmlinux file, and gzip it. This 
    closes: BUG#26199
  * Cleaned up the modules installation part. Now it conforms more closely
    to the kernel makefile, and indeed, it uses the kernel Makefile for

  * Applied numerous spelling corrections and punctuation fixes from
    Nathan E Norman <finn@midco.net>.
  * Make kernel-source packages suggest bin86, and mention in the
    description that this is only applicable to Intel architectures. 
  * Added documentation to make-kpkg, and its man page, to point to
    /usr/doc/kernel-package. I, too, have doubts about the efficacy of
    this step.

  * Added an preinst script for kernel images so that we do not overwrite
    the modules file gratuitously.
  * Added more documentation about kernel-package, as there were
    complaints that it was not advertized at all. 
  * Modified the README.headers file to reflect reality.

  * Added rudimentary support for the alpha. Please note that locations of
    the image may change in the future.
  * No longer ship unpacked sources in kernel-source-VERSION

    ppc. Things get very confused. This fix is essential for PowerPC

  * Mentioned in the rationale that the kernel image configuration files
    are kept in /boot for further reference.
  * Modified README.headers to indicate why kernel-source did not provide
    the headers required by libc6, but kernel-headers does.
  * Brought the headers README up to date.
  * Make the kernel-image suggest SILO on the sparcs rather than LILO.

    Made a series of changes for sparc architecture machines. Since the
    patches are hand installed, please test this version carefully
  
  * Added documentation for actions take for SILO
  * Created a special config.sparc for sparc machines
  * Changed the image prerm to look for and deal with silo as well as lilo
    installations
  * Major changes in image.postinst for SILO. 
  * Added loader specific variables, and passed them in to the control
    file and to the postinst scripts. Added support for config.sparc. Make
    the unpatch happen before cleaning out the debian directory. Do not
    remove the debian directory after applying the kernel patch. Make

kernel-package (3.61) unstable; urgency=low

  * There were bugs in 3.60, which are fixed in this release. Since the
    changes since pre-3.60 are so drastic, I am including the changelog
    entry again (as most people shall not see 3.60)
  * Fixed copyright files for all generated packages. This is one lintian
    warning less to worry about
  * This is a major change in the source/header packages. In architectures
    different from i386, `kernel-headers-*' and `kernel-source-*' are
    incompatible. This also has an effect on libc6-dev, which depends on
    kernel-headers-2.0.3x | kernel-source-2.0.3x, which is only true on
    i386 architectures. One possible solution would be to make libc6-dev
    depend on kernel-headers-2.0.32, but that won't work because
    kernel-source provides kernel-headers. In fact, since kernel-headers
    are arch dependent, but kernel-source is arch: all, kernel-source-*
    should not provide kernel-header* at all. 
    
    Once kernel source stops providing kernel-header*, and libc6-dev
    depends on kernel-headers-2.0.32 and links /usr/include/{linux,asm} to
    /usr/src/kernel-headers-2.0.32 (nor /usr/src/linux-2.0.32) things
    would work again in a Multi arch compatible fashion.
  
    Hence, now kernel-source-* packages compiled with this kernel-package
    shall not provide any sort of kernel-headers. For the sake of
    backwards compatibility, /usr/src/linux-$version symlinks are still
    being provided (as people may upload newer kernels while keeping an
    older libc6-dev around, which depends on /usr/src/linux-2.0.32. 
  
    However, I have been badgered enough about this that I shall remove
    the /usr/src/linux-$version symlinks at some point. This version no
    longer registers stuff in /usr/src/.linux-versions, and is no longer
    as paranoid about /usr/src/linux; but it does not outright remove
    those files either, so as not to cause people with older kernels
    having a problem during removal.As soon as it is deemed permissible,
    we shall get less paranoid about /usr/src/linux-$version as well.

kernel-package (3.58) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added SUBARCH, which is used to distinguish Amiga, Atari, Macintosh,
    etc. kernels for Debian/m68k, and may well be required for the alpha,
    from what I hear. Unlike the FLAVOURS variable, which affects
    everything it can lay its grubby hands on (kernel image, headers,
    source, doc package versions, and where the modules are looked for
    under /lib/modules), this only affects the naming of the kernel-image
    as the source and doc packages are architecture independent and the
    kernel-headers do not vary from one sub-architecture to the
    next. These changes are courtesy of James Troup <J.J.Troup@scm.brad.ac.uk>

  * Mentioned in the copyright file that the GPL and Artistic licences are
    available on the file system.
  * Ensure that the /usr/src/linux and /usr/src/linux-<version> links
    always exist, no matter what. Apparently, upgrading from
    kernel-source-2.0.32_2.0.32-1 to kernel-source-2.0.32_2.0.32-3 does
    not create /usr/src/linux-<version>, which breaks libc6-dev.

  * Make kernel-headers arch: any, so we can indeed have different headers
    for different architectures.
  * m68k can now handle vmlinuz, so reverse that behaviour in the rules

  * Improvements to /usr/doc/kernel-patch/MultiArch.gz, based on
    suggestions by James Troup <J.J.Troup@scm.brad.ac.uk>/

  * Ignore unmounted devices while looking for a root file system. Much

  * Added handling for root_cmd in the rules file. This should be set to
    `sudo' or `fakeroot' and is only used in the target buildpackage (it
    calls dpkg-buildpackage -r$root_cmd)
  * Made the rules file notice the env variable ROOT_CMD and over ride the

  * Added README.headers to the kernel-source package as well, since the
    information _is_ relevant to compiling kernels. Since kernel source

  * Expand on epoch numbers on standard kernel packages. Now the README
    file actually encourages epochs (horrors).

kernel-package (3.42) unstable; urgency=low

  * Changed image postinst not to use the obsolete -d option to
    superformat. Removed extra spaces from the exec option, so that it is
    more likely to work. Noticed by Joost Kooij <kooij@mpn.cp.philips.com>
    as BUG#14022
  * Note that the proposed two level versioning scheme fails if standard
    kernels use epochs. Further note that one may introduce epochs even in
    custom kernels. This fixes BUG#14067.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Wed, 22 Oct 1997 02:47:22 -0500

kernel-package (3.41) unstable; urgency=low

  * Handle obsolete /System.map and /System.old links left around by older
    kernel-package packages. All the programs that look at the information
    in the map files (including top, ps, and klogd) also will look at
    /boot/System.map-<version>, we just need to ensure that that file is
    present, and no longer require the symbolic link. 
    Actually, having the symbolic link in / is technically detrimental
    (apart from cluttering up /); many programs, though looking in /boot,
    still allow /System.map to override. If you use LILO to choose between
    multiple kernels, then the /System.map symbolic link only applies to
    one such kernel, for all other choices the symbols loaded will be
    wrong. Not having the symbolic links at all prevents this. 
    Therefore, the new image.postinst file shall offer to remove the
    symbolic links in /. This should fix BUG#13359

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Fri, 26 Sep 1997 10:44:39 -0500

kernel-package (3.40) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added the proposal for the new multi architecture support. Documented
    the new variable patch_the_kernel and the ENV override.  
  * Mentioned new behaviour of depmod and friends Re non .o files in
    /lib/modules in the problems file.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Thu, 18 Sep 1997 00:02:55 -0500

kernel-package (3.39) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fixed handling of modules.dep in the image.postinst. We do not attempt
    to recreate a modules.dep, since the man page admits the file so
    created may be incorrect. We warn the installer that there maybe
    problems loading modules into the kernel until reboot iff the version
    being installed is the same as the version currently running.
  * This fixes BUG#13009.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Tue, 16 Sep 1997 15:07:02 -0500

kernel-package (3.38) unstable; urgency=low

  * Mentioned other kernel source sites in the copyright file. This fixes
    BUG#11951.
  * Install files while preserving the timestamp (use install -p) 
  * This could be considered a release candidate, as long as a fixed
    dpkg-dev is also provided at the same time. This has been extensively
    tested on the authors machine, and there have been no bugs reported in
    nearly a month.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Fri, 29 Aug 1997 12:10:37 -0500

kernel-package (3.37) unstable; urgency=low

  * No longer create a System.map symlink in /, since that may confuse
    klogd when choosing kernel images using LILO. Since top, ps, and klogd
    look at /boot/System.map-<version>, we just need to make sure that
    file is present. This makes us friendlier to multiple images of the
    same kernel version.
  * No longer redirect output to a file in /tmp for security reasons (we
    use a log file in /var/log instead). This fixes BUG#11765,
    BUG#11766 and BUG#11847 
  * Added support for different flavours of the same kernel version for
    people who need them. This is based on the ideas and work of Bill
    Mitchell <mitchell@mozcom.com> and Noel Maddy <ncm@biostat.hfh.edu>.
    This should make us fully compliant to having multiple flavours of the
    same kernel version.
  * Added dependencies to targets in rules. Now things should work as
    expected if one edits a .config file. 
  * Fixed destination for the Buildinfo file. This fixes BUG#11884.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Mon,  4 Aug 1997 13:03:38 -0500

kernel-package (3.36) unstable; urgency=low

  * All kernel packages produced now list the version of kernel-package
    used in the file /usr/doc/Buildinfo. This is a bit of a Hack.
  * The image prerm will allow you to remove an running kernel image and
    hose your system. You will be warned. (under protest).
  * Added a variable to choose a no symlink option, which puts the real
    images in /vmlinuz and /vmlinuz.old, not symlinks (similarly for
    System.map). This makes it potentially less useful, since unless other
    action is taken one would have only two images on the machine at the
    time. This has been added for people who use file systems that do not
    implement symlinks.
  * Added a variable to ask for reverse symlinks, that is, vmlinuz is the
    real file, vmlinuz-2.0.30 is the link. This also restricts the system
    to two image files unless the user save a copy, added for people with
    boot on umsdos (can't see symlinks in dos mode) but who want the links
    to see what the image versions are in Linux. Mutually exclusive with
    the no symlink option. (apart from the symlinks, it is identical to
    the no symlink option). These should fix Bug#11395.
  * Fixed typo in control file for kernel-doc description. This fixes
    Bug#11568.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Tue, 29 Jul 1997 17:50:51 -0500

kernel-package (3.35) unstable; urgency=low

  * Preserve owner when copying the config file around. This fixes
    BUG#11022. 
  * Added final newline in the control file. This fixes BUG#11024.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Sun,  6 Jul 1997 22:04:22 -0500

kernel-package (3.34) unstable; urgency=low

  * Ran spell check on the README file.
  * Added a missing endif in the rules file

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Wed, 25 Jun 1997 02:32:42 -0500

kernel-package (3.33) unstable; urgency=low

  * No longer carries around an extra uncompressed kernel image, and does
    not anymore create /boot/psdatabase-X.X.XX. The psdatabase file does
    not seem to be required anymore.
  * Removed all references to psdatabase.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Wed, 18 Jun 1997 13:13:15 -0500

kernel-package (3.32) unstable; urgency=low

  * First version to be built with cvs-buildpackage.
  * Added patches to support m68k from "Frank Neumann"
    <Frank.Neumann@Informatik.Uni-Oldenburg.DE>.
  * Added patched to support sparcs from Eric Delaunay
    <delaunay@lix.polytechnique.fr> 
  * This fixes Bug#10231.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Mon,  2 Jun 1997 18:38:57 -0500

kernel-package (3.31) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added a version number to the dependency on dpkg-dev, we now require at
    least version 1.4.0.9., since dpkg-gencontrol fails with an error:
    failure: chown new files list file: Illegal seek
    This fixes BUG#10121.
  * Added problems with older versions of dpkg-dev to the problems file.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Sun, 25 May 1997 22:33:47 -0500

kernel-package (3.30) unstable; urgency=low

  * Tested with 2.0.30 and 2.1.40.
  * Moved config to /boot, where it arguably should have gone to in the
    first place. The /boot directory contains other information pertinent
    to the kernel, such as the System.map file, and the psdatabase.  The
    information about exactly what was configured into the kernel was
    missing, and it can get quite critical on some machines.  Also, the
    config file may serve as a base for compiling the next kernel. This
    file is not really a configuration file (not when packaged as part of
    the kernel-image package), hence it does not belong in /etc (no amount
    of changing this file will have any affect on system behaviour).  

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Wed, 21 May 1997 01:44:17 -0500

kernel-package (3.29) unstable; urgency=low

  * Kernel-image and kernel-doc now suggest each other.
  * Also recognize powerpc as a synonym for ppc in determining whether
    we use zImage or bzImage by default.
  * Fixed up some typos in documentation
  * Added rules target kernel_doc. This fixes BUG#9138
  * Also install .config file under /usr/doc. This fixes BUG#9298

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Fri, 2 May 1997 14:34:51 -0500

kernel-package (3.28) frozen unstable; urgency=low

  * No longer install text files in the modules directory, since depmod
    in modutils-2.1.34 fails when it finds a non-ELF file in modules
    directory. This fixes Bug#9243.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Wed, 30 Apr 1997 15:24:51 -0500

kernel-package (3.27) frozen unstable; urgency=low

  * Really add in all the changes sent in by Herbert Xu. The changes are: 
    * Changed to source package name back to kernel-source-=V again. 
    * Changed the installs to be without -o root -g root since it is no
      longer useful as the chowns are done before the packages are built. It
      also means that if it is used in targets like stamp-configure which may
      be run by anyone it won't not generate an error.
    * Made rules file generate the control file.
    * Fixed some typos in chown commands while generating the header
      packages. 

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Mon, 21 Apr 1997 15:12:19 -0500

kernel-package (3.26) frozen unstable; urgency=low

  * Made the default image for ppc architecture zImage. This fixes Bug#8696 .
  * Forgot to mention that the source package for the kernel packages
    (produced by make-kpkg buildpackage, for example) has been changed to
    not contain the kernel version as part of the name (all the deb files
    produced have not changed), so we now get kernel-image-xxx_yy_zz.deb,
    kernel-source-xxx_yy_zz.deb, and kernel-headers-xxx_yy_zz.deb, along
    with kernel-source.tar.gz and kernel-source_yy.diff.gz
  * Added config dependencies for module targets

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Fri, 18 Apr 1997 00:53:24 -0500

kernel-package (3.25) frozen unstable; urgency=low

  * Added changes sent in by the kernel packages maintainer.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Sun, 13 Apr 1997 00:03:36 -0500

kernel-package (3.24) frozen unstable; urgency=medium

  * Fixed a bash 2.0 inconsistency

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Wed, 9 Apr 1997 13:33:58 -0500

kernel-package (3.23) frozen unstable; urgency=medium

  * Fixed typos in rules for generating external modules

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Wed, 9 Apr 1997 12:41:45 -0500

kernel-package (3.22) frozen unstable; urgency=medium

  * Documented constraints on the debian revision field. This is important
     enough that I am reproducing the text of the admonition here.
     The revision number (the argument supplied after the --revision flag)
     has certain constraints: it may contain only alphanumerics and the
     characters + . (full stop, and plus) and should contain a digit.
     NOTE: No hyphens allowed. (Look at Chapter 5 of the Programmers manual
     for details)

     This is because dpkg imposes an ordering on version numbers, so that
     it can tell whether packages are being up or downgraded and so that
     dselect can tell whether a package it finds available is newer than
     the one installed on the system.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Fri, 4 Apr 1997 11:48:42 -0600

kernel-package (3.21) frozen unstable; urgency=low

  * Tested source package creation for 2.1.30
  * set umask to copy the kernel source files untainted by package creators
    umask. 
  * set umask to copy the kernel header files untainted by package creators
    umask. 

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Tue, 1 Apr 1997 11:04:42 -0600

kernel-package (3.20) frozen unstable; urgency=low

  * Could not reproduce BUG#8274, neither could the original reporter. I have
    made some changes in the postinst to allow leading whitespace in the
    user responses, and tested it on three different kernel-source
    versions.  I believe this bug is fixed now (I have 3 suitable boot
    floppies as evidence). 
  * image postinst no longer aborts when the user gives up on formatting a
    floppy, but now offers a choice to proceed with a preformatted floppy. 
  * Fixed spelling errors in kernel image postinst, fixing BUG#8409
  * Offer to user superformat if it exists.
  * Tested boot floppy creation.
  * Tested on 2.0.29, 2.1.29, and 2.1.30
  * Spell check the Problems file, mention setfdprm in there.
  * Mention setfdprm in postinst if fail to format floppy.
  * Fix a typo in code determining which floppy drive to use
  * Allow leading whitespace in responses
  * Added required packages to the README file.

kernel-package (3.19) unstable; urgency=low

  * Tested again on 2.1.27 kernel.
  * Added correct Handling for ipv6 modules in rules file

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Sat, 1 Mar 1997 13:52:15 -0600

kernel-package (3.18) unstable; urgency=high

  * Successfully compiled a 2.1.27 kernel.
  * Made make-kpkg not look for modules directory; that directory is
    removed by a make-kpkg clean.
  * Mentioned that ncurses-dev is required for make menuconfig in the
    README file.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Sat, 22 Feb 1997 23:36:30 -0600

kernel-package (3.17) unstable; urgency=low

  * Stupid @#$%$%@! vi changed Feb to February in the changelog messing up
    gencontrol. 

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Mon, 17 Feb 1997 19:29:02 -0600

kernel-package (3.16) unstable; urgency=low

  * Started compiling a list of known problems with compiling kernel images.
    This is now available as /usr/doc/kernel-package/Problems.
  * Moved to standards version 2.1.2.2.
  * Removed extra root checks in the rules file.
  * Added error messages to failed root check in the rules file.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Thu, 13 Feb 1997 14:40:41 -0600

kernel-package (3.15) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fixed kernel rules file so that one does not depend on the existence of 
    modules. This fixes BUG#6898.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Tue, 28 Jan 1997 22:15:27 -0600

kernel-package (3.14) unstable; urgency=low

  * Made image.postinst conform to standards version 2.1.2.2.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Mon, 27 Jan 1997 09:09:37 -0600

kernel-package (3.13) unstable; urgency=low

  * Silly typo in postinst (never code when sleepy).

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Mon, 27 Jan 1997 00:56:48 -0600

kernel-package (3.12) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added more injunction to run make-kpkg clean regularly
  * Remove /lib/modules/$version/modules.dep if it exists.  Recreate 
    immediately with depmod -a.  This will help reinstall the same kernel
    version more than once.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Mon, 27 Jan 1997 00:38:59 -0600

kernel-package (3.11) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added suggestions for fdutils and LILO for the kernel_image package.
  * Fixed typo in include.postinst.  Fixes BUG#6692.
  * Added warnings about possible (recent?) failure to autodetect floppy
    drives if using old fdformat from miscutils while creating a boot disk.
    This addresses BUG#6037.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Mon, 20 Jan 1997 12:03:31 -0600

kernel-package (3.10) unstable; urgency=low

  * *ALERT*.  Changed how customization variables are handled. All
    variables are given reasonable (IMHO) defaults.  Then the site
    customization file /etc/kernel-pkg.conf is read in, which can
    over-ride the defaults. THEN, the environment/command line variables
    are used to over-ride the values.
  * New env variables: KPKG_MAINTAINER, KPKG_EMAIL, IMAGE_IN_BOOT,
    IMAGE_TYPE 
  * new customization variables: kimage, image_in_boot
  * Edited README to give bare bones documentation for user customizable
    vars. 
  * Added man page kernel-pkg.conf.5.
  * Normalized existing man pages according to the templates floating
    around on the list.
  * Added copyright statements to the man pages.
  * Documented changes in make-kpkg
  * Added --bzimage option to make-kpkg for completeness.
  * Added a --zimage option to make-kpkg, (with support in the rules file),
    to make a zImage kernel rather than a bzImage kernel (the default). 
    Useful for people having problems with bzImage kernels. Suggested by 
    Richard G. Roberto <richr@Bear.COM>
 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Tue, 7 Jan 1997 12:44:00 -0600

kernel-package (3.09) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added documentation to the effect that make-kpkg is part of
    kernel-package in various READMEs. 
  * Made the final location of vmlinuz configurable (since one may have
    it under /boot as well as /).

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Thu, 2 Jan 1997 11:27:06 -0600

kernel-package (3.08) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added a man page for internal script kernel-packageconfig.  This fixes
    BUG#6304.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Wed, 1 Jan 1997 22:02:03 -0600

kernel-package (3.07) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fixed typo in kernel image postinst script

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Sun, 29 Dec 1996 23:40:31 -0600

kernel-package (3.06) unstable; urgency=low

  * Allow local configuration of the destination of all kernel related
    deb file (the default remains ..).  Now one can set it to directories
    like ../kernel-deb or /boot/archive/deb or whatever by setting the
    variable DEB_DEST in the conf file.
  * Offer user a choice about floppy drive to use. Also make it explicit
    which floppy drive is being used. This fixes BUG#6037.
  * Warn Intel users that they should get bin86 as well, if they intend
    to compile a custom kernel.  This fixes BUG#6144.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Fri, 27 Dec 1996 18:09:51 -0600

kernel-package (3.05) unstable; urgency=low

  * The package needs dpkg-gencontrol to do any work whatsoever, so it
    should depend on dpkg-dev, instead of merely recommending it.  
    This fixes BUG#6040.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Sat, 21 Dec 1996 01:54:01 -0600

kernel-package (3.04) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added dpkg (>= 1.4) to the dependencies, since older versions do
    not understand the new dpkg --build syntax.  This fixes BUG#6041
  * Fixed target modules config in kernel/rules. This fixes BUG#5836
  * Latest default kernel config file

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Wed, 27 Nov 1996 15:11:12 -0600

kernel-package (3.03) frozen unstable; urgency=medium

  * changed priority of kernel-source package to optional
  * changed priority of kernel-image package to optional
  * Recommended dpkg-dev since kernel/rules call binaries from there
    This fixes a problem that a number of people have reported on the
    lists, though it never made it as a formal bug report.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Fri, 22 Nov 1996 11:02:31 -0600

kernel-package (3.02) unstable; urgency=low

  * kernel-source-X.XX now no longer recommends bin86, since bin86 is only
    available Intel platforms.  It now merely mentions it in the
    description. 

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Thu, 7 Nov 1996 22:18:15 -0600

kernel-package (3.01) unstable; urgency=low

  * Changed one last typo in postinst. This (finally) fixes Bug#4234. 
  * Also, version 3.00 fixed Bug#4500 and Bug#4624
  * kernel-source-X.XX now recommends bin86, which fixes Bug#4443
  * Added short, succinct (and potentially dangerous) instructions on
    compiling kernels at the top of the README file.  This fixes Bug#4445.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@datasync.com>  Wed, 6 Nov 1996 23:58:35 -0600

kernel-package (3.00) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Changed the kernel-package to the new packaging schemes.
  * Removed the dist, source, and diff targets for make-kpkg, added
    binary-arch, binary-indep, and buildpackage targets.
  * Changed make-kpkg to reflect reorganization of the
    /usr/lib/kernel-package/ tree.
  * Changed Author email.
  * Removed dithering about ./debian/* in kernel sources, now make-kpkg
    looks only at /usr/lib/kernel-package/ (clears confusion about older
    versions of kernel-package).
  * Modified make-kpkg.8 to reflect changes in make-kpkg, and ran a spell
    check. 
  * Renamed debian/package.config to kernel-packageconfig, and removed
    (obsolete) references to dchanges)
  * Moved *.README to copyright.*, and changed the rules files to
    conform. 
  * Added explanation for kernel-headers-X.XX (and why we need this
    package in spite of having headers in libc5-dev)
  
 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@datasync.com>  Mon, 4 Nov 1996 16:19:33 -0600

kernel-package (2.03) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fixed typo in make-kpkg man pages where it insisted that it was
    make-dpkg ;-) 
  * Made the close brackets agree with open brackets in the man page
    synopsis.   This fixes Bug#3960

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  

kernel-package (2.02) unstable; low

  * Made image.postinst more polite.
  * Also enabled kernel-{source,image,headers} targets in kernel.rules 
  * Changed make-kpkg to also accept the new targets.
  * Fixed typo in man page.
  * The man page says it is an administrators man page rather than a 
    programmers man page.
  * Recommended libc-dev for kernel-source and kernel-package
  * source suggests ncurses3.0-dev, tk40-dev and the description explains 
    you could use make menuconfig rather than plain old make config if you
    had these packages.
  * Fixed typo in the rules for modules in /usr/src/modules/ directory
  * Made the rules for such modules ignore errors (since they are not
    really a part of this package, error there should not halt this build
    (or so people seem to want it)
  * Look for modules in the kernel config file (or the default config file
    if the user has not supplied a config file), and only make modules and
    install them if modules have been configured in the config file. This 
    could be tested better.
  * Fixed the make-kpkg.8 man page so that it now does not seem to mandate
    a source and diff file for additional modules installed under the 
    directory /usr/src/modules/ (whether these files are produced is at
    the discretion of the maintainer of that modules package.
  * Make configure depend on stamp-configure which in turn depends on
    .config Hopefully, this will remake the image target if one changes
    the config file Hopefully, this will not cause the image target to
    build needlessly. 

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  

kernel-package (2.01) unstable; urgency=low

  * Changed the scripts to refer to /usr/bin/perl rather than /bin/perl.
  * Added an extended description to the image control file.
  * Added a note that the dist target requires a PGP key.
  * Fixed a typo (missing DEBDIR) in debian.rules.
  * Fixed the targets expected by make-kpkg (kernel_image rather than 
    kernel-image, etc).
  * In image.postinst, made arguments to system be a single argument if  
    the arguments contain shell meta-characters, (this way perl passes
    them to sh -c).
  * Made make-kpkg accept non floats as revision numbers, to facilitate  
    local names.
  * Fixed silly bug in makefloppy in image.postinst.
  * Fixed the extended description of the kernel-package package.
  * Updated the image postinst to install the mbr, if it exists, and to
    activate the root partition, and to not overwrite the mbr (oops).
  * Changed maintainer email address to debian.org (I'll be in a state of  
    flux soon)
