Package: kernel-patch-2.4-cobalt
Version: 13
Severity: grave
Dear Russell Coker
As reported in http://people.debian.org/~frankie/kernel-patches-checks.txt, kernel-patch-2.4-cobalt does not
apply clean to a current kernel-source. If you think this package is anyway useful at least with
an up-to-date vanilla kernel and sure that it apply properly, feel free to document this in the
package and reduce the severity of this report, else this kernel-patch will be hinted for
removing in sarge.

Hi Russell,
Since this bug has been open for 9 months with no response, the patch has
not been applicable to current kernels for longer, and ideally 2.4 isn't
going to be shipped with etch, I think it's best to go ahead and remove this
package. Please close this cloned bug if you disagree.
Bug report prompted by the bugs.debian.org bug that let all the buggy
packages back into testing today :/
