Fix this by making these both version and ABI specific. > I am not convinced this is necessary. All subsequent CW packages _must_ conflict, therefore you can never get into a state of clashing udev firmware helpers. Refer to the complex conflict relationships in Lucid LBM. Its possible that you could get into trouble if you force installed a kernel and CW package from another release that had the same ABI. To avoid that conflict you'd have to distinguish the udev helpers names by release name _and_ ABI. I'm not sure that scenario is worth the complexity. > The second patch removes all udebs and udeb creation logic from LBM. > LBM is an elective install and not part of any default server or netboot > installation.

git only tracks files so as soon as this is empty it will go away.
