Below is a list of kernel 2.2 packages (by source package) and packages
(build-)depending on them.
kernel 2.2 image packages packages:
arm:
- kernel-image-2.2.19-netwinder
- kernel-image-2.2.19-riscpc
m68k:
- kernel-image-2.2.25-amiga
- kernel-image-2.2.25-atari
- kernel-image-2.2.25-bvme6000
- kernel-image-2.2.25-mac
- kernel-image-2.2.25-mac-udeb
- kernel-image-2.2.25-mvme147
- kernel-image-2.2.25-mvme16x
powerpc:
- kernel-image-2.2.10-powerpc-apus
sparc:
- kernel-image-sparc-2.2
kernel 2.2 patch packages:
Architecture support:
- kernel-patch-2.2.20-arm
- kernel-patch-2.2.25-m68k
Other patches:
- kernel-patch-2.2.17-vm-global
- kernel-patch-2.2.18-vm-global
- kernel-patch-2.2.19-reiserfs
- kernel-patch-2.2.20-p3
- kernel-patch-2.2.20-raid
kernel source package:
- kernel-source-2.2.25
other packages:
- boot-floppies
- kernel-headers-2.2.25-m68k
- lids-2.2
To my current knowledge, all of them can be removed with the following
exceptions:
- kernel-image-2.2.25-mac
- kernel-image-2.2.25-mac-udeb
- kernel-patch-2.2.25-m68k
- kernel-source-2.2.25
Are there any other packages in the list above that have to stay?

You can't remove the sparc ones. 2.2 is the only thing that runs stable
on sparc32's (all sparc32's).

This one does. There is no 2.4 kernel yet that functions on all m68k
macs (and, most likely, there will never be one; but the 2.6 series
should support macs on a bright day)
> - kernel-image-2.2.25-mac-udeb
This one can go. In fact, a bug to drop it has already been filed...

OK.
Package: kernel-image-sparc-2.2
Binary: kernel-headers-2.2.20-sparc, kernel-image-2.2.20-sun4cdm,
kernel-image-2.2.20-sun4dm-smp, kernel-image-2.2.20-sun4u,
kernel-image-2.2.20-sun4u-smp
Version: 9
Priority: optional
Section: base
Maintainer: Ben Collins <bcollins@debian.org>
Build-Depends: egcs64, gcc (>= 2.95.2-4.1), kernel-source-2.2,
sparc-utils, bzip2
If they are still required for sparc32, at least the following needs to
be done to get this package into a good shape:
- drop kernel-image-2.2.20-sun4u and kernel-image-2.2.20-sun4u-smp
(and perhaps kernel-headers-2.2.20-sparc)
- remove build dependency on egcs64 (no longer in unstable and not
required for sparc32)
- Build-Depends: kernel-source-2.2.25
- s/2.2.20/2.2.25/g

Leave all of these.

Amiga is the only m68k subarch that I know is capable of using 2.4.x
kernels. However, not all amigas run stably with 2.4.x kernels. The
mac port seems to have recently been energized to support 2.6.x, but
that's still a work-in-progress. Very few if any macs run 2.4,
although there's also some porting work going on there.
My plan is to release d-i with 2.2 kernels for all m68k subarchs,
excepting amiga.

This is only a woody package. It doesn't actually build in sarge
anymore, and i have asked for the removal of this package (or the
security team did so, will have to check) from sarge/sid in favor of the
2.4.x packages (2.4.20 actually in sarge/sid, 2.4.25 just uploaded).
Friendly,
Sven Luther

The point of this cleanup is that Debian 3.1 will ship with
kernel 2.4 and 2.6, but not with kernel 2.2.
The security team has already stated that they will not support three
major versions of the kernel in Debian 3.1.

Can definitely be removed since I am thinking about orphaning the lids
packages at all. But you'll hear from me about that.
