There are no major changes, mostly a few depmod fixes, but I see this as 
an argument in favour of transitioning the package since it was uploaded 
long ago and before the freeze.
The second argument is that I need to include in the next upload an 
important bug fix from GIT[1] which applies to version 9, and I would 
rather not waste time managing t-p-u only uploads and making sure that 
the patch is both literally and logically compatible with version 8.
