Thanks for the details and the fix! :) For some reason all the links are there in the new version of the package (that was supposed to be uploaded to unstable before the freeze but the release team managed to freeze just before I was about to upload). I don't quite see why the newer package doesn't fail the same way and I'll have to investigate that... ... in case you're interested in looking at it the package is available at http://git.debian.org/?p=collab-maint/pkg-iproute.git and you build it with: git clone git://git.debian.org/collab-maint/pkg-iproute.git iproute cd iproute git checkout -b upstream origin/upstream git checkout -b pristine-tar origin/pristine-tar git checkout master git-buildpackage --git-pristine-tar -uc -us -- Andreas Henriksson -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
