There are some tests to run to help track down the bug, listed at the end of the bug trail. This is one of the last things holding up a large mess of packages getting into 'testing', so it would be a much appreciated thing to work on. (If you're working on debian-installer for arm, of course, that's probably just as urgent.) Thanks. -- Nathanael Nerode <neroden at gcc.gnu.org> http://home.twcny.rr.com/nerode/neroden/fdl.html
