<DIV><SPAN class=681253718-06122007><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>Is there a
way to prevent a kernel from being upgraded unless</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

given dependencies are satisfied?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=681253718-06122007><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>What I am
getting at is sometimes updated kernels are available</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=681253718-06122007><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>before the
upgraded versions of the kernel modules in 'extras'</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=681253718-06122007><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>are (ie
drbd).</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=681253718-06122007><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>If there
were a way to list these modules as dependencies that</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=681253718-06122007><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>must be
satisfied before a kernel upgrade can be performed it</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=681253718-06122007><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>would
prevent a lot of pain around upgrade management.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
