The question is whether this is a change Debian made to the kernel packaging, an upstream change,, or something I inadvertently changed on my system. If either of the former two, Debian really needs to document something like this. > It will probably be straightened out before it hits stable. Great. As I noted, Arch seems to have gotten a handle on this six months ago. In the meantime, Debian really should document breaking changes like this.

I suppose that I can do this if I have to, but I'd rather not mess around with stuff I don't really understand without an official guide to the process. -- Celejar
