[08:12] <Solatis> hello
[08:13] <Solatis> question: what is the difference between linux-kernel-headers package and linux-source-x.x.xx packages ?
[08:13] <Solatis> since linux-kernel-headers is still at version 2.6.10, while running kernel version is 2.6.12 in breezy
[08:13] <Solatis> so i'm not able to compile any kernel modules
[08:29] <infinity> linux-kernel-headers is for compiling user-space applications, not for compiling modules.
[08:29] <infinity> For compiling modules, you want linux-headers-`uname -r`
[08:30] <infinity> (You also want gcc-3.4, though you'd probably find that out the hard way soon enough)

[08:38] <Solatis> infinity: haha yes, already found that out
[08:38] <Solatis> and thanks, linux-headers-`uname -r` worked
[08:38] <fabbione> we don
[08:39] <fabbione> we don't Depends: gcc-3.4 for several reasons tho
[08:39] <fabbione> one is that you might want the headers or source just for reading
[08:39] <fabbione> and you so much don't want us to pull a gcc for that
[08:44] <infinity> A Depends or Recommends might have been nice, but too late now.
[08:46] <infinity> Something to fix for dapper, though, since I highly doubt dapper's kernel will be built with gcc-4.0
[08:46] <infinity> dapper+1, maybe.  If we're lucky.
=== infinity is reminded of the old days of having gcc272 installed as "kgcc", since 2.95 didn't cut it.
[08:49] <fabbione> infinity: we discussed it already
[08:49] <fabbione> we agreed on a Suggests:
[08:51] <infinity> Err, I meant "A Suggests or Recommends", not Depends.. So,yes, we're onthe same page.
[08:52] <infinity> A Recommends may be better than a Suggests, though.  The people who would be browsing kernel headers for fun are the same people who know how to tell their package manager not to install Recommends, everyone else probably wants the compiler by default.
[08:53] <infinity> (Which is precisely what Recommends means)
[08:53] <fabbione> let them have fun to figure out how to trash their kernels :)
