Sorry, I missed that you sent this on Monday when I replied to your
"thoughts?" question from V5.
I think we should really be checking if KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME is set
already when you use it and default to kernel if it does not exist
rather than having 2 places where KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME is ??= set.
Sorry about the timing.
Sau!
