Subject: Remove __kernel_dev_t definition from linux/types.h
Package: linux-kernel-headers
Version: 2.5.999-test7-bk-17
Severity: wishlist

Re:

This causes problems when building uclibc, since it defines
__kernel_dev_t in its own headers.  I recently switched uclibc
to use linux-kernel-headers instead of straight kernel headers
for the same reason that glibc -- it's the Right Way To Do It.

This is wishlist, since I currently have a workaround in uclibc.
