From: Hugo Vanwoerkom on 19 May 2010 14:10 Hi, Another apt question. I have my own kernel installed: hugo(a)debian:~/.fvwm$ dpkg -l | grep linux-image ii linux-image-2.6.33.3-hvw 1 Linux kernel binary image for version 2.6.33.3-hvw ii linux-image-2.6.33.4-hvw 1 Linux kernel binary image for version 2.6.33.4-hvw no headers and no other debian images. When I do a apt-get dist-upgrade though I see: The following NEW packages will be installed: ....linux-image-2.6-486 linux-image-2.6.32-5-486... which I want to avoid, because it adds to the time to do the upgrade and I am only interested in Debian's 2.6.33, which is still in experimental. Can anyone think of a way around this? Hugo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Do you have mindi installed? Otherwise I cannot see a package in sid/experimental that would pull in linux-image-2.6-486. > which I want to avoid, because it adds to the time to do the upgrade > and I am only interested in Debian's 2.6.33, which is still in > experimental. > > Can anyone think of a way around this? No, but please run "aptitude -s -D full-upgrade" to figure out why linux-image-2.6-486 gets installed.

It's mindi. The funny thing is I install mondo(with mindi) from upstream because its support on Debian has fallen by the wayside: current is 2.2.9.3-1 and debian still has 1:2.2.7-2.1. Thanks a lot!

Two patch levels (2.2.9 vs. 2.2.7) is fallen by the wayside? Really? It looks like some of those changes even got integrated into the package -- there was an NMU for it (Debian revision 2.1). Depending on the scope of patch level changes on this project (x.y.z -> x = Major, y = Minor, z = Patch level), I don't think missing a few is a big deal. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss(a)iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/

That is 7.5 months without activity. Depending on what the change is from 2.2.7 to 2.2.9 that might be a big deal. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
