From 6cb23b27db637aab959ae75f3f2ffa16ed69a8ec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Hutchings Date: Sun, 20 Jun 2010 17:06:40 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Move NEWS from linux-2.6 to linux-latest-2.6 Every kernel ABI bump introduces new binary packages, which are normally installed as dependencies of an upgraded linux-image package built from linux-latest-2.6. Since apt-listchanges only shows NEWS for upgraded packages, not newly installed packages, we should put it in the linux-latest-2.6 packages. Backdate the description of the libata transition to the release of linux-latest-2.6 which depends on it. This also means that NEWS won't be shown for linux-libc-dev upgrades which it doesn't affect.
