[Xen-devel] debian packages of xen

[Adam Heath <doogie@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have debian packages of xen just about done.  I'm creating 10 debs,
containin the various parts of the library, tools, and kernels.

There are currently 2 things keeping me from uploading them to debian itself.

1) Tomorrow, after I Get to work, I'll test booting our hardware with the
kernel debs I've made.  I've done custom compiles up until now.  I don't
expect any hurdles.

2) The device nodes xen are block major 125.  This is marked as
LOCAL/EXPERIMENTAL use, in Documentation/devices.txt.  Debian policy requires
me to file a bug on makedev, as this tool is what is supposed to create device
nodes.  I am reluctant to do this, when they are using this number.  Could
this be changed to something more official?

ps: I still have to write descriptions for all the debs, and make simple
manpages for the tools(the later is requied for debian policy).

pps: I am also known as doogie@xxxxxxxxxx, but since I'm doing this for work,
I'm using my work address.
