[Unstable/Noble][PATCH 0/2] Don't produce linux-*-source-<version> package (LP: #2052439)

[Impact]

Some kernels produce a linux-*-source-<version> binary deb package. That is all wrong and confusing, only the primary/main linux source package should produce that package.

[Test Case]

Check list of built binary packages in LP and verify the package is not built.

[Where Problems Could Occur]

Already installed packages won't upgrade and become stale.

[Notes]

This bug is filed against the main linux package because that's where the build rules live.

  UBUNTU: [Packaging] Build linux-source package only for the main
