This looks really great!  Thanks.  Some ideas would be to make it more
specific to Ubuntu (i.e. instead of saying "2.6.25 and later", using
"Intrepid and later").

Beyond that, I see two things that need to be fixed:
1) Smack needs to be enabled in the kernel
2) smack-utils needs to be packaged for Ubuntu (and/or Debian)

I've already asked Tim Gardner (kernel team) to turn on the config for Smack,
so that should show up in the next Intrepid kernel.

Is anyone interested in doing some from-scratch packaging of
smack-utils?

Thanks,

-Kees
