The kernel26 package lacks a versioned dependency on module-init-tools - the gz support was only enabled recently, see the mailing list for the exact version number.

and with this, i rest my case. Cherry picking from testing is wrong and it should be all or nothing approach. -- Ionuț

Umm... module-init-tools is only in [core] so cherry-picking from [testing] did not cause this.

I agree in general, but IMHO the kernel is different, I do not see any reason to not run whatever kernel people like. Cheers, Sergey

Until it gets deprecated (like 2.6.26 or something). Also a few other packages are very dependent on kernel versions (nvidia/catalyst for example). Of course, those who know what they're doing can do whatever they want.... those who ASK are those who are likely to have problems though.

Thanks, Thomas! But shouldn't it be fixed i n such a case?
the gz support was only enabled recently, see the mailing list for the exact version number.
However I couldn't find it neither in the mailing list nor on archlinux.org... Cheers, Sergey
