I'll be uploading dpkg 1.6.15, a new modutils and a new base-passwd for stable today as well. I'll also do the recompiles for other architectures so you don't have to wait for that. Important fixes: * update-alternatives handles updating slave links correctly and sets a link to manual mode if --config is used. Currently --config is very good at breaking alternatives.. * dpkg -l output honours COLUMNS environment and will check if its outputing to a tty. Also makes it somewhat faster since the current version checks the tty width for each line of output (oops!) * modutils no longer produces error/warning messages if a kernel does not support modules. This is causing a nice number of bugreports. * update-passwd modified to keep a backup file of passwd/shadow/group.
