Building the udeb package itself is effectively trivial, so the
possibility for non-trivial consequences seems somewhat unlikely.

Is your concern about debian-boot's ability to block-udeb when
preparing d-i updates, which could affect libpcap transitions?

The current requirement for non-wpa initial setup in kfreebsd's d-i is
a burden, so it would be quite nice to solve that.  Thanks for the
feedback!

Best wishes,
