kernel-package 13.010 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

kernel-package (13.010) unstable; urgency=low


  * No longer have generated kernel images depend on ksymoops, a long
    defunct package, since it is useless with kernels >= 2.6.
    (Closes: #748066).
  * When the user asks for the arch name to be part of the kernel image
    package version string, only image and debig packages included the
    arch in the name. This commit makes the name of the header package
    also be consistent with the image names. At this point, the source and
    document/manual package names remain generic, since arch specific
    differences should not exist in those packages. (Closes: #568576).
  * the image packages generated by kernel-package also build in the
    modules requested in the configuration file, so there is no
    linux-moules-* package. However, in case there are dependencies on
    that package name, the image package now also claims to provide the
    modules package. (Closes: #599815).
  * In order to ease the life of people cross compiling, or building for a
    subarch, do not call dpkg-gencontrol with the host archtecture, but
    rather, with the architecture we built the kernel image for.
    (Closes: #563300).
  * Hopped on to an armel machine to test make-kpkg. The CPU is reported
    as arm by dpkg-architecture, so the top level logic in kernel-package
    was correct.Unfortunately, the armel specific file wassumed the CPU
    was armel, so nothing got included.  Corrected that inner check in
    this release.  (Closes: #664854).
