Bug#336750: Same error with linux-image-2.6.14-1-686

that the first time in my 5 year Debian life I see a dependency blocking apt that is
not solved by the 'to be installed' list shown before starting download !!!
some how, it is the first time I have really an apt error that is due to dep tree
not build properly.
When I encontoured that bug (3rd nov), apt did not try to install any additionnal
package, and when post-inst script tried to build the RD image, it failed, until I
MANUALLY ask EXPLICITELY to install the package mentioned in my previous email.
Other packages WERE PRACTICALLY INSTALLED, but none could satisfy the INSTALL SCIPT.
I mean, yaird WAS INSTALLED on my box, but was not usable for building the RD image,
and seamed as much useless as mutt or nmap.
Please make the package depend on something that makes the script happy.
