Description Lars Müller 2005-12-09 14:23:10 UTC 
For 10.0 kernel update tests I installed kernel-default-2.6.13-15.7 with YOU.

After this package was installed I installed kernel-default-2.6.13-15 with --noscripts, created the initrd for 2.6.13-15 and the *.previous sym links in /boot manually.  This is required as I have to ensure to have a working = previous kernel install as several of my systems are without CD drive and even not able to perform a network boot.

When I call YOU again YOU activated the installed kernel-default-2.6.13-15.7 for an update again.

the package manager only sees the last installed version of a package if multiple packages with the same name are installed. Therefore YOU doesn't know that you already have the new kernel.
