kernel-package 13.004 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

kernel-package (13.004) unstable; urgency=low


  * There were some places where we still recommended custom.1.0 instead
    of 1.0.custom, even though the former is now not acceptable. This
    commit fixes the remaining locations where that advice was incorrect.
  * When compiling in a git checkout of the kernel sources: the
    KERNELRELEASE variable contains the key word dirty, even though the
    tree is clean, and verified by git status. This is caused by using
    fakeroot make-kpkg .../ Updated documentation to not the preferred
    form is to use make-kpkg --rootcmd fakeroot to avoid this.
    (Closes: #717807).
  * If you build from the git tree of the linux kernel, and you are not on
    a tagged branch, the script scripts/setlocalversion will append a plus
    sign to the version if the repository is not in a clean annotated or
    signed tagged state and LOCALVERSION= is not specified. This creates
    problems when packaging the resulting image. Updated the documentation
    for workarounds. (Closes: #721482).
  * Patch to build uImage kernels for ARM by  Andrew Bradford. This adds
    the --uimage option to build a uImage kernel for ARM systems. Needs
    uboot-mkimage installed to do so, This package contains the mkimage
    utility, which encapsulates a compressed  "uImage" Linux kerel image
    with header information, CRC32 checksum, etc,  for use with the U-Boot
    bootloader.  (Closes: #572117).
  * Since the debug images all upload files in the same location, they
    conflict with each other.  (Closes: #570635).
  * Starting with 2.6.35 there is a new kernel config target (nconfig)
    which is something like menuconfig just a bit fancier. Added support
    for that. (Closes: #590446).
  * The generated image packages now suggest the corresponding manual
    packages, in addition to the doc packages. Made the doc and manual
    packages suggest each other.  (Closes: #593895).
  * Bug fix: #717807: "kernel-release contains -dirty although the tree is
    clean", thanks to Michal Hocko
  * Bug fix #570635: "-dbg packages should conflict each other", thanks to
    Sebastian Bremicker
  * Bug fix #572117: "please, add support for uboot images (uimage)",
    thanks to Hector Oron
  * Bug fix #590446: "support ncurses kernel config target", thanks to
    Christoph Anton Mitterer
  * Bug fix #593895: "generated linux-image-* packages should also suggest
    the respective linux-manual-* packages", thanks to Christoph Anton
    Mitterer
  * Bug fix #721482: "Can't build image: changelog says 3.11.0-rc7+,", thanks
    to Linus Lüssing
