Re: netbase bug?
So why has the "fixed" netbase not been moved into slink? Is this because
it only effects the 2.2 kernel series and that isn't "officially" in
slink? Seems like something should at least be mentioned in the package
info of the "broken" netbase so users, like me, don't waste a day trying
to figure out what is going on.
