That would be because I don't keep it in that tree. It is in a quilt tree you can find in the stable-queue.git repo, and I have never tagged -rc1 releases there. No one has ever asked for it before, so in the past 6 years of stable releases, I guess no one ever needed it. ketchup and tarballs seem to work well for others, perhaps you can use that as well (hint, ketchup on top of the linux-stable tree works just fine for testing this.) greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
