*** Please type your report below this line ***
When I try to install linux-imaqe-2.6.17-2-686, it fails to notice that my copy
of yaird is too old, and proceeds with the install attempt. No dependency
errors
are raised.
I do not have the initramfs-tools package installed.
I have dpkg version 1.13.22 installed.
