Details

now that kernel24 is gone from the repos, is there a good reason for the pkgname to be kernel26, i think kernel is a more appropiate name
kernel-2.6.19.x or even linux-2.6.19 just as the gzipped tarball from kernel.org, not that it matters though.
This task depends upon

I agree, but this will require a lot of changes in many packages in repos and AUR.
And when there will be Linux 2.7/2.8 - the same problem will arise.
