Hi Frans,
I'm sorry. I didn't know adding new udebs without getting them installed
in D-I required approval of the D-I team (or the release team!). My purpose
was only to be able to manually apt-install them (they do have a use-case
when user wants to edit GPT partitions like I had to in a recent install).
