65515 and 65991 can be merged; control message pending.
these will be fixed as soon as we get ARM, Sparc and m68k modutils 2.3.11-8.

we should remove this package if we don't have copyright info. aj, can you
please do this?

There are 2 i386 only pcmcia-modules-2.2.16 packages in potato. These need
to be removed as we don't have 2.2.16 kernels. aj -- please take care of this.
In the meantime I am reassigning this to ftp.debian.org

is this really RC?

This postinst says.....
    #
    # This should really be stop 98 0 6 . start 25 S . but then raid
    # would stop before filesystems are umounted.  Ugh.
    #
    update-rc.d raid start 50 0 6 . start 25 S . > /dev/null

it would seem that the package maint is right -- on some raid setups there
could be race conditions here that prevent you from doing a mdstop. Anyone
have ideas for a workaround?

Looks like this was built for woody... there's soemthing in the changelog
about removing unmet deps for potato but it looks like it's still not ok yet.

w3-el-e20 has a dependency that restricts it to emacs20.6, but we have 20.7
in the archive. Any reasons why the dependency is so restrictive? Looks like
a simple fix
