NOTES TO PACKAGE USERS
======================
To use this patch with make-kpkg, use a command like:
$ env PATCH_THE_KERNEL=YES make-kpkg --added_patches=kdb --config=menuconfig
Then go to the "Kernel hacking" section of the configuration, and
select the features you want to compile your kernel with.
Please read README-kernelpatch.Debian for more details.
NOTES TO PACKAGE HACKERS
========================
The doc/ subdirectory is created by running "patch -p1 -f" on the
common patch, and taking the contents of Documentation/kdb/. The
master changelog is kdb/ChangeLog, created at the same time. The
arch-specific Changelogs are taken from arch-specific patches using
the same technique, from arch/<arch>/kdb/ChangeLog directories.
Debian 2.2 shipped with kernel-patch-2.2.10-kdb 0.5-2 and
kernel-patch-2.2.13-kdb 0.6-2, the latter declaring "Provides:
kernel-patch-kdb". The packaging was simplified afterwards, but we
still need to keep a Conflicts/Replaces with the "kernel-patch-kdb"
virtual package, although it may seem strange at first glance.
