Description Darren Smith 2009-08-25 11:57:44 UTC
The removal of most of the older vanilla-sources releases has left the latest stable version at 2.6.26.7. Please stabilize newer kernels (2.6.26.8, 2.6.27.31, 2.6.28.10, 2.6.29.6 and 2.6.30.5 seem like reasonable candidates) . It would have been best to have done that _before_ removing all the old versions.

Reproducible: Always

Indeed... why was 2.6.30.3 removed? It was the most recent stable source. I think it should be returned, unless there was some serious bug in this version and the upgrade/downgrade was meant to be forced.

Yeah, it was gregkh's fault. I already reverted the change.
