linux-2.6 version 2.6.32-7 includes an incomplete bug fix that will
result in failure to boot 32-bit userland on a 64-bit kernel.

2.6.32-8 will have the complete bug fix.

Looks like the amd64 build has been approved - can we avoid accepting
the other archs? i386, in particular, will cause a lot of problems.

I've added a note to the 2.6.32-7 uploads.

Okay, I just rejected linux-2.6_2.6.32-7_alpha.changes,
linux-2.6_2.6.32-7_hppa.changes, linux-2.6_2.6.32-7_i386.changes,
linux-2.6_2.6.32-7_ia64.changes and linux-2.6_2.6.32-7_s390.changes.

As far as I know now the buildd admins need to do some magic to prevent
the packages to be build again.


Best regards,
Alexander

linux-2.6_2.6.32-7_sparc.changes rejected, too.

fyi: < aba> come to #debian-buildd or #d-release and say us so. And tell
the *** maintainer that they should do that. kernels waste lots of time,
especially on the slow arches

Sorry about that - I was about to catch my train to FOSDEM and just
tried to limit the damage before leaving. Given more time to think
about it I would have asked to cancel the builds too.

Ok. Please just remember it next time (if there is a next time).
