[17:07] <ogra_> uh, oh ... our kernel package points to /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL ... (which is a link to GPL-3 nowadays)

[21:41] <faginbagin> How to maintain a patched kernel?
[21:42] <faginbagin> I just went thru the process of bisecting kernels, reporting a regression on launchpad and then reporting the regression to kernel.org.
[21:42] <faginbagin> After a few days working with the developer, he was able to make a change that fixed the regression (from v4.2.8 btw).
[21:45] <faginbagin> Now I would like to maintain a xenial (4.4.x) kernel with that patch. Is there a recommended process? Something like the way dkms is used to update nvidia modules when there's a kernel update?
[21:47] <faginbagin> FWIW, here's the launchpad bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1603230
