[Linux-wlan-ng-devel] Bug#337613: sets WRONG dependency on kernel image for no reason

[Eduard Bloch]

Package: linux-wlan-ng-source
Version: 0.2.2+dfsg-3
Severity: grave

Hello,

I have just pointed by a user on your "solution" WRT kernel dependency
in debian/control.modules.in and I must admit: IT SUCKS.

 - there is no point in setting a such dependency. People can install
   their custom kernels without make-kpkg. RTF Kernel-Howto please.
 - constructing "linux-" or "kernel-" is pretty stupid, sorry. You
   cannot assume anything, because this applies to debian-kernel
   prebuilt versions ONLY.

Please remove this dependency information or move it to Suggests or so.

Eduard.
