Now I know :-) Easy to revert 2.6.14.5 to 2.6.14 then patch to 2.6.15 if you follow the stable series. Still saves ~30MB downloading source. Because I'm also compiling the -rc? and -mm? I keep 2.6.14 tree and use hardlink trees, when 2.6.15 came out I patched the 2.6.14 to 2.6.15 and deleted the development trees -- works for me ;) And no, I'll not automate this, it's enough dealing with finger trouble let alone scripts doing things behind my back! I have vim trained to break hardlink files on write, I don't get myself in trouble so much.
