[ANNOUNCE] linux-kernel-headers-2.6.19-rc1.tar.gz

[David Woodhouse]

A full set of user-visible kernel headers for all supported
architectures, exported from the 2.6.19-rc1 kernel, has been uploaded
to
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/dwmw2/kernel-headers/snapshot/

I had planned to do this for 2.6.18 but it wasn't quite in good enough
shape by then. This one should be fine -- you can build your C library
against it and ship it in /usr/include. And tell me what breaks...

I probably won't do tarballs corresponding to -rc releases very often
but I'll do the proper releases.

I'm curious how you produced this for all architectures?  Did you
write up a script to so something trivial like

    for i in $LINUX_DIR/arch/*; do
	make ARCH=$(basename $i) INSTALL_HDR_PATH=/tmp/foo headers_install;
    done

or did you do something more complicated and interesting?  If so,
would you mind sharing?

Ahh!  I see that was added to 2.6.19-rc1.  Very cool.
