Description:
The kernel26-lts package currently doesn't have the extra version stripped as in the kernel26 package.
Would it be a good idea to strip the extra version to reduce the need to recompile 3rd party kernel modules after every minor version upgrade?

Additional info:
* kernel26-lts 2.6.27.38-1
This task depends upon

we don't support any 3rd parties modules for this kernel. there's no need to strip the extra version. this kernel provides the correct uname -r version ;)
