Please tell us since when you have not heard about your upstream, and what
fixes you have down to yaird since then, and when do you expect to be looking
at merged bug :
#343427: linux-image-2.6.14-2-powerpc: Installation fails
#345067: [powerpc] ide-generic is not built on powerpc, yaird tries to
include it and fails
Open respectively since 74 and 60 days now. I even proposed you to go over the
patch and solve it in erkelenz, but you where more interested in polimicking
than fixing this bug, what else can i say ...
