Package: linux-source-@version@
Architecture: all
Section: kernel
Provides: linux-source, linux-source-@major@
Depends: binutils, bzip2
Recommends: libc6-dev | libc-dev, gcc, make
Suggests: libncurses-dev | ncurses-dev, kernel-package, libqt3-mt-dev
Description: Linux kernel source for version @version@ with Debian patches
This package provides source code for the Linux kernel version @version@.
This source closely tracks official Linux kernel releases. Debian's
modifications to that source consist of security fixes, bug fixes, and
features that have already been (or are believed to be) accepted by the
upstream maintainers.
.
If you wish to use this package to create a custom Linux kernel, then
it is suggested that you investigate the package kernel-package,
which has been designed to ease the task of creating kernel image
packages.
Package: linux-doc-@version@
Architecture: all
Section: doc
Provides: linux-doc-@major@
Description: Linux kernel specific documentation for version @version@
This package provides the various README files and HTML documentation for
the Linux kernel version @version@. Plenty of information, including the
descriptions of various kernel subsystems, filesystems, driver-specific
notes and the like. Consult the file
/usr/share/doc/linux-doc-@version@/Documentation/00-INDEX
for the detailed description of the contents.
Package: linux-manual-@version@
Architecture: all
Section: doc
Provides: linux-manual, kernel-manual-@major@
Conflicts: linux-manual, kernel-manual-@major@
Replaces: linux-manual, kernel-manual-@major@
Description: Linux kernel API manual pages for version @version@
This package provides the Kernel Hacker's Guide in the form of
manual pages, describing the kernel API functions. They
are installed into section 9 of the manual.
.
As the files containing manual pages for different kernel versions
are installed in the same location, only one linux-manual package
may be installed at a time. The linux-doc package containing the
documentation in other formats is free from such restriction.
Package: linux-patch-debian-@version@
Architecture: all
Depends: bzip2, linux-support-@upstreamversion@@abiname@
Suggests: linux-source-@version@
Description: Debian patches to version @version@ of the Linux kernel
This package includes the patches used to produce the prepackaged
linux-source-@version@ package, as well as architecture-specific
patches.
.
Note that these patches do NOT apply against a pristine
Linux @version@ kernel but only against the kernel tarball
linux-@major@_@source_upstream@.orig.tar.gz from the Debian archive.
Package: firmware-linux-free
Architecture: all
Description: Binary firmware for various drivers in the Linux kernel
This package contains firmware which was previously included in the
Linux kernel and which is compliant with the Debian Free Software
Guidelines.
.
Most firmware previously included in the Linux kernel is non-free
and has been moved to the firmware-linux-nonfree package.
