According to gkh, <http://kroah.com/log/blog/2016/09/06/4-dot-9-equals-equals-next-lt s-kernel/> the next lts will be 4.9.x, wondering if leap 42.2 will have enough time to start off from 4.9 immediately? current 4.1 or 4.4 lts are deprecated in early 2018, so 42.2 probably does need the next lts after 4.4? Any clues yet? Thanks.
Leap 42.2 is very likely to use the same kernel as SLE 12 SP 2, and that is 4.4. Suse has a kernel team which will maintain 4.4 for the life of SLE 12 SP 2.
In my home project I have created a kernel:LTS subproject.
https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:gregfreemyer:Kernel:LTS
I'll try to update that to 4.9 when the time comes. It will be my first tine for it not to be a simple link, but hopefully I can track 4.9 in 2017.
I like that! Would have saved me some time if I had known this before.
Maybe you should add the *-kmp packages too there.

I don't know much about KMPs. Can you suggest 2 or 3 packages in OBS I could branch? I could at least find out if they build easily. Greg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
