[Bug 444605] Re: make sure source is obtainable for uec kernel images

[Scott Moser]

The uec build output has 2 kernels and 2 initrd per arch (1 set for uec, 1 set for ec2).  There is information available for each that indicates the pedigree.
a.) the manifest file for the build : the kernels come from a package inside of the image, and all packages and versions are listed here
b.) the kernel-info.txt file : this file has explicit information on where each kernel/initrd file came from.

For b, an example:
karmic-uec-i386-vmlinuz-virtual	vmlinuz-2.6.31-14-generic-pae	i386	linux-image-2.6.31-14-virtual	2.6.31-14.46
karmic-uec-i386-initrd-virtual	initrd.img-2.6.31-14-generic-pae	i386	linux-image-2.6.31-14-virtual	2.6.31-14.46
karmic-uec-i386-vmlinuz-ec2	vmlinuz-2.6.31-302-ec2	i386	linux-image-2.6.31-302-ec2	2.6.31-302.7
karmic-uec-i386-initrd-ec2	initrd.img-2.6.31-302-ec2	i386	linux-image-2.6.31-302-ec2	2.6.31-302.7

The above tab-delimited content represents:
 - file name in the build output
 - original file name in the image
 - arch
 - package from which the file came (for initrd, this is the kernel package)
 - package version

That should provide us with plenty of information to get the source for
a given image.

** Changed in: vm-builder (Ubuntu Karmic)
       Status: Triaged => Fix Released
