Bug#376305: linux-headers-2.6.17-1-amd64-k8: not installable because of dependency on "linux-kbuild-2.6.17"



Package: linux-headers-2.6.17-1-amd64-k8
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


linux-image-2.6.17-1-amd64-k8 is installable, but the corresponding headers package is
not. This means that no modules packages (e.g. fuse) can be built against it with any
kind of reasonable ease.

Illustration of the problem:

# aptitude install linux-headers-2.6.17-1-amd64-k8

(This probably has been around for several days and for multiple mirrors, so it's not
just a mirror sync problem.)
