Hi,
I went through the RC bug list and collected Bugs with trivial patches
and sorted them a bit. They realy don't need much work so if you have
a minute pick one. If you want to NMU any of them check the

LTSP keep all the client specific files in RAM file system. The
NFS-mounted root is not written to by the client.
How to reproduse:
create test1_1.deb with package 'test1', version '1'

create test2.deb with package 'test2' that depends on test1 (>= 2)
dpkg -i test1_2.deb
