Comment 1:
Ad 1. If you want to enforce this policy and you are willing to sacrifice the
additional space, so be it. (Currently this would be around 320M in i386). I
would see this as a completely pointless exercise, but it's not my decision.
Ad 3. Having all the kernel-$flavor packages depend on kernel-source was a big
pain in the back. We are quite happy with how the packages are split at the
moment, with the sources in all kernel-$flavor packages instead. This makes
building test kernels much easier. So we are very unlikely to make work that
much harder for us.
Ad 2., 4., Both are about not shipping all the src.rpms. We could to that and
add a note somewhere. I have no objections to that, but we'll get a few more
complaints because more people won't find the src.rpms they are looking for.
So make your choice: either to leave things as they are despite this policy
which doesn't add any value, waste a lot of space by shipping all the sources
with all the packages, or stop shipping the kernel-$flavor.src.rpm packages
altogether.
