  1. Hey lovely Ubuntu maintainers!
  2.  
  3. I've been compiling my own mainline kernels for a while now due to running with a few additional hardware specific patches for my system. I've been using the mainline kernel instructions from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ .
  4.  
  5. However starting with Kernel v4.10, the Ubuntu git repo doesn't seem to contain the needed branches for this to work any more. For example, trying to get v4.10.9 fails:
  6.  
  7. $ git clone --branch v4.10.9 git://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel-test/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/mainline-crack
  8. Cloning into 'mainline-crack'...
  9. fatal: Remote branch v4.10.9 not found in upstream origin
  10.  
  11. but cloning anything from the v4.9.x series works fine:
  12.  
  13. $ git clone --branch v4.9.10 git://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel-test/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/mainline-crack
  14. Cloning into 'mainline-crack'...
  15. remote: Counting objects: ...
  16.  
  17. The particular instructions for building v4.10.9 are at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.10.9/ , and don't seem to be any different from any earlier releases, so I'm guessing that branches are not hitting the ubuntu mainline-crack repository at all.
  18.  
  19. This may be the entirely wrong place to report this bug, in which case I would *love* your advice on where I should be fielding this.
  20.  
  21. Many, many thanks!
  22.  
  23. ~ Paul
